Artist/Band: Joan Baez
Lyrics for Song: Sweeter For Me
Lyrics for Album: Complete A&m Recordings [2003]



Red telephone sitting by my bed

Practically bore your name

Lying alone in the twilight zone

Waiting for your call to come in

Hadn't been for the kid

Who was sleeping upstairs

You'd have found me well on my way

On that midnight plane to L.A.



You suffered sweeter for me

Than anyone I've ever known



I dared to look into the years

Would you still have your wife?

I dared to peer through my tears

Could we ever have a life?

Even thought I was pregnant by you

But I didn't care

I just talked to my son

Would he mind another one?



You suffered sweeter for me

Than anyone I've ever known



Once more the mist rolls to the sea

Like a hundred times we've known

Trees are faded and the clouds have stopped

Where the wind had blown

How I dread when the evening comes

And I cannot be

What you want me to be

When you are next to me



How silent you are as the veils come down

Before my eyes

Soft and reserved as you move away

Donning your disguise

While every folk song that I ever knew

Once more comes true

And loves grows old

And waxes cold



You suffered sweeter for me

Than anyone I've ever known



Just one favor of you, my love

If I should die today

Take me down to where the hills

Meet the sea on a stormy day

Ride a ridge on a snow white horse

And throw my ashes away

To the wind and the sand

Where my song began



You suffered sweeter for me

Than anyone I've ever known
