Eddie Vedder - Hard Sun

When I walk beside her
I am the better man
When I look to leave her
I always stagger back again

Once I built an Ivory Tower
So I could worshop from above
When I climb down to be set free
She took me in again

CHORUS:
There's a big
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
In a big hard world

When she comes to greet me
She is mercy at my feet
When I see her pin her charm
She just throws it back at me

Once I dug an early grave
To find a better land
She just smiled and laughed at me
And took her bruise back again (CHORUS 2x)

When I go across that river
She is comfort by my side
When I try to understand
She just opens up her hands

(CHORUS)

Once I stood to lose her
When I saw what I had done
Bound down and flew away the hours
Of her garden and her sun

So I tried to warn her
I turned to see her weep
Forty days and forty nights
And it's still coming down on me

(CHORUS 8x)
