My sweet, what did I do
To deserve these feelings I have for you?
Try to pull my face up off the pillow case,
And think about what you put me through.
My sweet, my sweet,
My sweet, I can't imagine life without you,
But I know it's true.
My brother, he ain't around,
But he called in from out of town.
He said, "Benjamin, not this again.
I can't stand by and watch her bring you down."
My sweet, my sweet,
My sweet, you told me, "Baby, now you're found."
But how did you sound?
Oh mother, please don't take this wrong--
At least now I've got another song.
And I know one day, the one will come my way.
Until then, I guess I'll just hang on.
My sweet, my sweet,
My sweet, I'm trying hard to stay strong
As I say, "So long."
My sweet, my sweet,
My sweet, I'm moving slowly towards the dawn,
'Cause I know you're gone.
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
