Original 4-track guitar/vocal only demo from Jeff Buckley's posthumously released "Sketches For My Sweetheart The Drunk", with full instrumentation added by Ryan Rulon. For fun. And to have a version to bump.
I Know We Could Be So Happy, Baby (If We Wanted To Be)
There's no easy answer
None to blame or forgive
Two cripples dancing
To the end we live
I'm not with you but of you
Not with you, but of you
You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
And I hope I'll catch you
In the throws of one last look at the wonder
One last look at the wonder
Oh, God, I love you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else we come to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
You are soft and young to me
I am the ghost who comes and goes
I'm hoping that I'll catch you in the throws
Of one last look at joy that we've become
But there's no easy answer
none to blame or forgive
We were two cripples dancing
To the bitter end we live
I'm not with you, but of you
I'm not with you but of you
Oh, God, I loved you
And all the past we once knew
Some other love becomes you
Whatever else it comes to
I know we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
We had a birthplace in common
We had separate beds and lives
I'll just sit here and glow
Break out the oldest pictures
Hang your ruined letters out to dry
We had a birthplace in common
And separate beds and lives
And lives, and lives
I know that we could be so happy, baby
If we wanted to be
I know that we could be so happy, baby
