Sweeter Than Anything Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

In photographs 

I've seen him laugh 

Hand overboard 

Sun on his back 

Summer was here 

I remember it well 

How he stood in the shade 

How we both kissed and fail 

How can this be 

There's nothing left here 

How can this be 

There's nothing left here 

So sad our, so sad our 

So sad our, so sad our 

So sad our, so sad our 

Our memory, hey 

Now he talks in his sleep 

Says I've never known peace 

And I don't know him now 

He's a stranger to me 

How can this be 

There's nothing left here 

How can this be 

There's nothing left here 

We were never more than a dream 

Brief as summer or spring 

Sweeter than anything
