Lindy Lyrics

I knew your love

Before I even knew your name

No other could give what you gave to me

Lindy

And yours was the first

Heartbeat I'd heard

No other has given what you gave to me

Lindy

Now I'm the one carrying you around

Every day

Wherever I'm gonna go

You are never so far away

And I cannot put you down

When you gave me everything

I even have your own father's arms

And your children's children on my knee

Unique among all others

My mother

The one who gave me birth

I was your sunflower bud

On the wall of your womb

Unfolding in the depths of the earth

I knew your voice

Before I could speak

It can be a brutal world

But there was room for me

It can be a brutal world

But there was room for me

Lindy

And I knew your touch

Before I was seen

I was a stranger

And you welcomed me

Lindy

I was a stranger and you welcomed me

Lindy

Now I'm the one carrying you around

Every day

Wherever I'm gonna go

You are never so far away

And I cannot put you down

When you gave me everything

I even have your own father's arms

And your children's children on my knee

Armfuls of memories come

Like a harvest none too late

(You're never far, you're never far)

Your cherry tomato cheekbones

As you prepare everyone a plate

(You're never far, you're never far)

And I cannot put you down

You gave me everything
