You're True

As performed in 2002.

lonely cliffs and waterfalls
if no one sees me, i'm not here at all
you could be the one to liberate me from the sun
so please, give the moon to me
and so i thank you dearly
for letting me see clearly
open up, she said
be true, be you
i'm at home in my own skin
i'm like an ocean's tide come in
you could be the one to watch the full moon
every night with me
so much left to do
i'd be indebted to ya
walk the dog and pay rent to ya
if you say the word, i'm yours
oh sure...
you're true, you're true...


and as performed in 2006 (transcribed by me. sorry if I got any of it wrong)

Lonely cliffs and waterfalls
if no one sees me, I'm not here at all
you could be the one to liberate me from the sun
so please, give the moon to me
I'll be indebted to ya
Walk the dog in favor to ya
If you say the word, I'm yours.
I'm sure... ohhhh
nothing ever goes my way
but with you here that all may have changed
suddenly I'm a newborn child
but I'm relieved to live a while
with you...
there's so much left to do
And so I thank you dearly
for letting me see clearly
open up she said,
You're true. You're you. ohhhhh
I'm at home in my own skin
I'm like an ocean as tides come in
yes, you could be the one to
hold my hand beneath the full moon
you could be the one.
You're true. You're true. You're true.
Baby humpback, baby humpback!
Down the sewer, down the sewer!

    I think I must have heard of this song before in this forum, but I don't think I've heard it. It has a very pretty feel to it.

    We had a full moon over here recently that was so beautiful and so bright, and so intense I just wanted to watch it. To be able to let go of any yesterday or tomorrow, and just sit and watch the moon with someone is very special. To pass on those thoughts so others think about that as an option is also very nice :)

    I absolutely LOVE this song. It was beautifully done on 12/2....the first time I'd ever heard it. Nice lyrics. I visualize lyrics like a movie I'm watching...if that makes sense. You're True brings a soothing and lovely visual to mind.
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    Yeah, summer and the beautiful girl that could fix everything. :(


    Another beautifully written song by Vedder.
    Oh he fills it up with the love of a girl...
