A Sweetness In You Lyrics by James Yorkston, Nina Persson, The Second Hand Orchestra

The Great White Sea Eagle

2023

I think of him often as I look out to the sea
And I live by the coast
I think of him often as I look out to the sea
And I live by the coast
And do I tell my children that life isn't for everyone
No, of course I do not tell them that just yet
I didn't know you so well but we certainly had our times
And there always seemed to be a sweetness in you
I didn't know you so well but we always seemed to laugh
And there always seemed to be a sweetness in you
And some people can ever undеrstand
Why you never sought a helping hand
But maybе I can understand, I can understand
And do I tell my children that life isn't for everyone
No, of course I do not tell them that just yet
There is beauty somewhere
So tell me again how this journey can be shared
In times of need
There is beauty somewhere
So tell me again how this journey can be shared
In times of need
And some people can ever understand
Why you never sought a helping hand
But maybe I can understand, I can understand
And do I tell my children that life isn't for everyone
No, of course I do not tell them that just yet
I think of him often as I look out to the sea
And I live by the coast
