"Sweet Dew Lee" lyrics - BELLE AND SEBASTIAN

[Intro:]
I want to lend you my ear
And diligently be on hand
And hear the dreams of the woman
The dreams of the girl
As the sun rises high overland

[Chorus:]
Sweet Dew Lee, I see you endlessly
In my waking dream as I walk down the street
In another dimension, oh, in a parallel world
I am holding your hand
I have made you my girl

Wednesday, the tea got cold
And I'm marching up the frozen hill
But the boys must fight to prove a point
With the city lights all spread below
If you could see me now, you would laugh
And you'd shake your head and say "How sad"
I didn't think after twenty years
I'd be right back in the self same places

[Chorus:]
Sweet Dew Lee, I miss you endlessly
And it can't be undone
All the ways that I've run
In another dimension
Through an uncharted haze
There were no bitter words
Nor the parting of ways

Reconcile yourself to knowing that
Glamour fades as time moves on
I once held you in a bold caress
But now my nose is pressed against the glass
Fate has danced and we flew apart
Now I'm cleaning up at your latest party

[Chorus:]
Sweet Dew Lee, I see you endlessly
In my waking dream as I walk down the street
In another dimension (another dimension)
Oh, in a parallel world (parallel world)
Oh, I was your man (I was your man)
I had made you my girl

[Outro:]
I could change the name
Oh, it would still be the same
Oh, I could change your name
I'm Yul, you're Phaedra
Oh, I could change the name
Oh, it would still be the same
I just send you my love (send you my love)
From a parallel world
