Calypso - Suzanne Vega |
| [00:21.01] |
My name is calypso |
| [00:23.52] |
And I have lived alone |
| [00:26.21] |
|
| [00:27.68] |
I live on an island |
| [00:29.21] |
|
| [00:30.17] |
And I waken to the dawn |
| [00:34.08] |
A long time ago |
| [00:35.98] |
|
| [00:36.99] |
I watched him struggle with the sea |
| [00:40.11] |
|
| [00:41.54] |
I knew that he was drowning |
| [00:44.64] |
And I brought him into me |
| [00:47.52] |
|
| [00:48.56] |
Now today |
| [00:49.88] |
|
| [00:50.63] |
Come morning light |
| [00:54.71] |
He sails away |
| [00:57.19] |
After one last night |
| [01:02.94] |
|
| [01:04.06] |
I let him go. |
| [01:05.92] |
|
| [01:09.32] |
My name is calypso |
| [01:11.29] |
My garden overflows |
| [01:14.11] |
|
| [01:16.01] |
Thick and wild and hidden |
| [01:18.32] |
Is the sweetness there that grows |
| [01:22.04] |
My hair it blows long |
| [01:25.13] |
As I sing into the wind |
| [01:27.57] |
|
| [01:29.79] |
Where I could taste the salt on his skin |
| [01:35.34] |
|
| [01:36.84] |
Salt of the waves |
| [01:41.17] |
And of tears |
| [01:42.98] |
And though he,pulled away |
| [01:45.16] |
I kept him here for years |
| [01:53.04] |
|
| [01:55.41] |
I let him go |
| [01:59.67] |
|
| [02:52.68] |
My name is calypso |
| [02:55.21] |
|
| [02:56.02] |
I have let him go |
| [02:57.87] |
|
| [02:59.09] |
In the dawn he sails away |
| [03:01.71] |
|
| [03:02.31] |
To be gone forever more |
| [03:05.72] |
And the waves will take him in again |
| [03:09.28] |
But hell know their ways now |
| [03:12.62] |
I will stand upon the shore |
| [03:15.34] |
With a clean heart |
| [03:16.89] |
And my song in the wind |
| [03:18.88] |
The sand will sting my feet |
| [03:21.01] |
And the sky will burn |
| [03:24.54] |
|
| [03:25.57] |
Its a lonely time ahead |
| [03:27.79] |
|
| [03:30.84] |
I do not ask him to return |
| [03:36.06] |
I let him go |
| [03:38.14] |
I let him go |
