Eddie Vedder - Hard Sun Lyrics
(originally by Indio)When I walk beside her, I am the better manWhen I look to leave her, I always stagger back againOnce I built an ivory tower so I could worship from aboveWhen I climbed down to be set free, she took me in again[Chorus:]There's a big, a big hard sunBeating on the big peopleIn the big hard worldWhen she comes to greet me, she is mercy at my feetWhen I see her bitter charm, she just throws it back againOnce I dug an early grave to find a better landShe just smiled and laughed at me and took her blues back again[CHORUS X2]When I go to cross that river, she is comfort by my sideWhen I try to understand, she just opens up her hands[CHORUS]Once I stood to lose her when I saw what I had doneBound down and threw away the hours of her garden and her sunSo I tried to warn her, I turned to see her weepForty days and forty nights and it's still coming down on me[CHORUS X8]
