[00:00.19]The Tallest Man On Earth - To Just Grow Away
[00:03.12].
[00:19.99]We're melting ruby hearts
[00:23.99]A confusing trade
[00:27.99]To burn the ore
[00:31.30]And to shape a blade
[00:35.18]And then to swing it low
[00:39.11]Beginner's fate
[00:42.86]To lose a skin
[00:46.42]To just grow away
[00:49.11].
[00:50.24]Like a rain, to help a river
[00:54.58]But a river's so hard to please
[01:00.40]But I've grown to see the diamonds
[01:07.14]You've thrown in just for me
[01:10.77].
[01:24.58]We spent so many nights
[01:28.33]Just gathering stones
[01:32.64]The silver tears
[01:35.46]And old sapphire bones
[01:39.52]And all the copper leaves
[01:43.58]Then dreamt, now true
[01:47.02]Look how they find their path
[01:51.08]To cut right through
[01:53.85].
[01:54.79]Like a rain, to help a river
[01:58.97]But a river's so hard to please
[02:04.79]But I've grown to see the diamonds
[02:11.35]You've thrown in just for me
[02:15.91].
[02:28.82]Look when your hopeless child will figure
[02:31.57]There are moments when hope's not
[02:34.13]Only real when flagging far down a road
[02:38.82]And with an armful broken arrows
[02:41.51]And no hand free for the bow
[02:43.94]Your kid will lose a battle
[02:46.51]But your ways will let him go
[02:50.32].
[02:54.07]I lose my wish to drown
[02:58.07]And aimless flee
[03:01.54]And what you've thrown to lose
[03:05.72]Is still right here with me.
