Evergreen Cassette - Goldspot[00:00:00]
If I mistook[00:00:12]
The sun for a mango[00:00:15]
I'd fly up there and reach for it too[00:00:17]
It's the story of something older[00:00:21]
And bigger than me and you[00:00:26]
And you told it[00:00:30]
In a letter[00:00:33]
In the form of an evergreen cassette[00:00:35]
And I played it[00:00:39]
In the morning[00:00:42]
Till after the sun would set[00:00:44]
See mother I believe[00:00:49]
That half of everything I what is true[00:00:52]
Between you and me[00:00:56]
I believe the anecdotes too[00:01:00]
In the verandah[00:01:06]
In the midnight heat[00:01:09]
Cousins and I would wait for the rains[00:01:11]
Singing songs about america[00:01:15]
And then the first drops came[00:01:20]
So don't worry[00:01:24]
Even though you were[00:01:27]
Oceans and continents away[00:01:29]
I had evergreen hits lullabies[00:01:33]
And everything you had to sing[00:01:38]
See mother I believe[00:01:42]
That half of everything I hear is true[00:01:46]
Between you and me[00:01:50]
I believe the anecdotes too[00:01:54]
If they get you through[00:02:00]
If time time could be bent with the drop of a tear[00:02:06]
You'd see it rain in our house for a year[00:02:12]
This is the sound of the beating you'd hear[00:02:16]
All the tapes we've taped over[00:02:24]
All of our hopes and our fears[00:02:26]
The open verandah's been flooding for years[00:02:30]
I always hope that I'd see you here[00:02:34]
But time time can't be bent with the drop a tear[00:03:00]
And though you say you missed out all of those years[00:03:06]
Your voice on the tapes always kept us near[00:03:10]
See mother I believe[00:03:18]
That half of everything I hear is true[00:03:22]
Between you and me[00:03:26]
I believe in everything you do[00:03:30]
