SONNY

R. Hynes

Sonny lives on a farm, in a wide open space Take off your shoes, stay out of the race Lay down your head, on a soft river bed Sonny always remembers the words Mamma says.

Sonny don’t go away, I’m here all alone Your Daddy’s a sailor, never comes home, Nights are so long, silence goes on, I’m feeling so tired and not all that strong.

Sonny works on the land, though he’s barely a man There’s not much to do but he does what he can Sits by his window in his room by the stairs Watching the waves drifting soft on the pier.

Sonny don’t go away, I’m here all alone Your Daddy’s a sailor, never comes home, Nights are so long, silence goes on, I’m feeling so tired and not all that strong.

Many years have rolled on, Sonny’s old and alone His Daddy the sailor, never came home Sometimes he wonders what his life might have been But from the grave Mamma still haunts his dreams.

Sonny don’t go away, I’m here all alone Your Daddy’s a sailor, never comes home, Nights are so long, silence goes on, I’m feeling so tired and not all that strong.

Go dig my grave both wide and deep Place a marble stone at my head and feet And on my breast a snow white dove To tell this world that I died for love Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me She went upstairs for to make her bed And not one word to her mother said Her mother, she went upstairs too Saying “daughter oh daughter What troubles you?” “Oh Mama dear, I cannot tell, That railroad boy that I loved so well He courted me my life away And now with me he will not stay” Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me Her father, he came home from work, Saying “where’s my daughter? She seemed so hurt” He went upstairs for to give her hope And he found her hanging by a rope Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me He got his knife for to cut her down And in her bosom these words he found; Go dig my grave both wide and deep Place a marble stone at my head and feet And on my breast a snow white dove To tell this world that I died for love Oh Lordy Lord, Oh Lordy me Oh Lord, oh Lord, Oh Lordy me

Lyrics

Waking up to kiss you and nobody’s there
The smell of your perfume still stuck in the air
It’s hard
Yesterday I thought I saw your shadow running round
It’s funny how things never change in this old town
So far from the stars

And I want to tell you everything
The words I never got to say the first time around
And I remember everything
From when we were the children playing in this fairground
Wish I was there with you now

If the whole world was watching I’d still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you

I saw that you moved on with someone new
In the pub that we met he’s got his arms around you
It’s so hard
So hard

And I want to tell you everything
The words I never got to say the first time around
And I remember everything
From when we were the children playing in this fairground
Wish I was there with you now

Because if the whole world was watching I’d still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
You still make me nervous when you walk in the room
Them butterflies they come alive when I’m next to you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you

And I know that it’s wrong
That I can’t move on
But there’s something about you

If the whole world was watching I’d still dance with you
Drive highways and byways to be there with you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
You still make me nervous when you walk in the room
Them butterflies they come alive when I’m next to you
Over and over the only truth
Everything comes back to you
Everything comes back to you

Lyrics

I still watch you when you’re groovin’
As if through water from the bottom of a pool
You’re movin’ without movin’
And when you move, I’m moved
You are a call to motion
There, all of you a verb in perfect view
Like Jonah on the ocean
When you move, I’m moved

When you move
I’m put to mind of all that I wanna be
When you move
I could never define all that you are to me

So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby

You are the rite of movement
Its reasonin’ made lucid and cool
I know it’s no improvement
When you move, I move
You’re less Polunin leapin’
Or Fred Astaire in sequins
Honey, you, you’re Atlas in his sleepin’
And when you move, I’m moved

When you move
I can recall somethin’ that’s gone from me
When you move
Honey, I’m put in awe of somethin’ so flawed and free

So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you’ve nothin’ left to prove
And nothin’ to lose
Move me, baby

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh baby, oh baby
Move like grey skies
Move like a bird of paradise
Move like an odd sight come out at night

Move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Like you’ve nothin’ left to lose
And nothin’ to prove
Move me, baby
So move me, baby
Shake like the bough of a willow tree
You do it naturally
Move me, baby

Lyrics
I walked across an empty landI knew the pathway like the back of my handI felt the earth beneath my feetSat by the river and it made me complete
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?I’m getting old, and I need something to rely onSo, tell me when you’re gonna let me inI’m getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen treeI felt the branches of it looking at meIs this the place we used to love?Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?I’m getting old, and I need something to rely onSo, tell me when you’re gonna let me inI’m getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we goTalk about it somewhere only we know?This could be the end of everythingSo, why don’t we go somewhere only we know?Somewhere only we know
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone?I’m getting old, and I need something to rely onSo, tell me when you’re gonna let me inI’m getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute, why don’t we goTalk about it somewhere only we know?This could be the end of everythingSo, why don’t we go?So, why don’t we go?
Ooh, oh-ohAh, oh
This could be the end of everythingSo, why don’t we go somewhere only we know?Somewhere only we knowSomewhere only we know
