Everything But The Girl - These Early Days Lyrics






You're only two and the whole wild world revolves around you,
and nothing happened yet that you might ever wish to forget.
It doesn't stay that way, if I could I'd make stay that way.
And this you will recall in after years,
though you may weary of this vale of tears -
these days remember, always remember.

You're only two and I've no wish to worry you,
so pay no mind to those who say the world is unkind -
that's just something they've read,
and if I could I'd strike them dead.
And this you will recall in after years,
though you may weary of this vale of tears -
these days remember, always remember.

And honey there's no rush,
the world will wait for you to grow up.
And this you will recall in after years,
though you may weary of this vale of tears -
these days remember, always remember.

I hope you never change,
I'll call you Jimmy, they call you James;
don't ever change,
I'll call you Jimmy, they call you James.

    Ha ha, and Ben's in on it too! 0:54, then 1:51 .... Whatever it is you've got me smiling too!!
    Love Ben's sweet guitar picking throughout the song, And of course Tracey's sweet voice, what can you say.
    Would love an extended/enhanced version of this - like maybe 7, 8 minutes or so... maybe I'll have to do it myself!
    Ok, my favorite songs are Love is Strange & Looking for Love, now I've got a 3rd favorite! (yeh, along w/ a few others ;-)

  8. W.... S....

    Oh I like this, Wow!
    I love seeing Tracey looking so happy! Don't think I've ever seen her smile so much in any song before - You can tell she is really enjoying singing this song too. No Questions about it!
    Great song, thanks for putting it up :-)
