We Don’t Know How and We Don’t Know Why Lyrics
6 ContributorsWe Don’t Know How and We Don’t Know Why LyricsWe don't know how and we don't know why
But when the king was born, his mother died
She was the queen of their hearts
And the queen of their minds
Her sisters and the nation cried and cried
The Sparrow Lyrics
5 ContributorsThe Sparrow LyricsYesterday, blue sky
I saw a sparrow
I thought maybe it flew away from my sorrow
Why would you go?
You'll never see tomorrow
I’d give it all away, one more day
Has to pay for the sparrow
My sorrows, to be gone tomorrow
For the sparrow
My sorrow, to be gone tomorrow
The newborn king now sleeps in his cradle
His mother's grave is pitched from the shadows
They took the crown, they took the crown
The power's crown
The sun goes down, the sun goes down, the sun goes down
The universe brought you here, yeah it’s true (Yes it's true)
The universe can take you away, too (Yeah)
Though you're gone, if I can listen I can hear you (Hear you)
The door to my heart, always stay open (Open)
Forever stay for the sparrow
My sorrows, to be gone tomorrow
For the sparrow
My sorrow, to be gone tomorrow
Tomorrow
Giant Baby Lyrics
4 ContributorsGiant Baby LyricsThe giant newborn grew into a giant little boy
It wasn't easy to find him giant baby toys
He loved outer space and he loved the sky
He would reach up to touch it, but it was too high
You're the biggest baby
Don't know how and don't know why
Something strange when you were born
Has made you giant-size
You're the biggest baby
You're the giant little boy
Life is fun and life is big
And life is full of joy
One night, I saw your face up in the sky
In a cloud across the moon, it made me cry
I could see my mother as she died
In my head and in my hands
In the dirt and in the land
And it made me understand
That life sometimes is sad
You're the biggest baby
Don't know how and don't know why
Why, why, why, why, why
