Eddie Vedder Ukulele Songs Lyrics
1.Can't Keep

I wanna shake, I wanna wind out
I wanna leave this mind and shout
I've lived all this life
Like an ocean in disguise
I won't live forever
Oh, you can't keep me here

I wanna race with the sundown
I want a last breath that I don't let out
Forgive every being
The bad feelings, it's just me
I won't wait for answers
Oh, you can't keep me here

I wanna rise and say a goodnight
I wanna take a look on the other side
I've lived all these lives
It's been wonderful at night
I won't live forever
Oh, you can't keep me here


2.Sleeping by Myself

I should have known there was someone else
Down below I always kept it to myself
Now I believe in nothing, not today
As I move myself out of your sight
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight

I could never go to no one else
The hurt don't show but who knows time will tell
I believe in nothing but the pain
And I can't see this turning out right
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight

Forever be sad and lonely
Forever never be the same
I close my eyes
Wait for a sign
Am I just waiting in vain?

Oh I believe in love and disaster
Sometimes the two are just the same
I'm beginning to see
What's left of me is gonna have to be free to survive
I'll be sleeping by myself...
I'll be sleeping by myself...
I'll be sleeping by myself tonight


3.Without You

I'll grow when you grow
Let me loosen up the blindfold
I'll fly when you cry
Lift us out of this landslide
Wherever you go
Whenever we part

I'll keep on healing all the scars
That we've collected from the start
I'd rather this than live without you
For every wish upon a star
That goes unanswered in the dark
There is a dream, I've dreamt about you

And from afar, I lie awake
Close my eyes to find I wouldn't be the same

I'll shine when you shine
Painted pictures on my mind
Sun sets on this ocean
Never once on my devotion
However you are
Or far that you're far

I'll keep on healing all the scars
That we've collected from the start
I'd rather this than live without you
For every wish upon a star
That goes unanswered in the dark
There is a dream, I've dreamt about you

And from afar, I lie awake
Close my eyes to find I'd never be the same
Without you, without you


4.More Than You Know

More than you know, more than you know
Lately I find you're on my mind
More than you know

Whether I'm right, whether I'm wrong
I need you so
More than you know, more than you know

Loving you the way that I do
There's nothing I can do about it
And a little bit of love that I get
May be all that you can give
But I can't live without it

Oh how I'd cry, oh how I'd cry
If you got tired and said, 'Goodbye'
More than I'd show
More than you'd ever, ever know
More than you know
More than you'd ever, ever know
More than you know


5.Goodbye

I've got our love to remember
That will never change
I have you in my head
And no, I'll never hold you
And I'm still asking why
I guess that this is goodbye

My dreams suddenly seem so empty
I could go on my own, but I feel like playing dead
And for what feels like the first time
I don't know where you are tonight
I guess that this is goodbye

We lived half our lives together
Hundreds of years is a lot of weight to bear
And the sun, it may be shining
But there's an ocean in my eyes
Cause I know that this is goodbye
Cause I know that this is goodbye


6.Broken Heart

don't mind me, just let me be
my eyes so far away
i don't need no sympathy
the word seems overplayed

i'm alright, it's just tonight
i can't play the part
i'm alright, it's alright
it's just a broken heart

don't have eyes for the world outside
they're closed and turned within
trying to find the light inside
it's lit, but growing dim

i'm alright, it's just tonight
i can't play the part
i'm alright, it's alright
it's just a broken heart


7.Satellite

It's no shame that
Love's a game that
I can only play with you
What I'm saying
Is I'm here waiting
For you

I've seen the light,I'm
Satisfied that
The brightest star is you
Satellite, I'm Holding tight
Beaming back to you

Days turn into
Nights turn into
Days turn into today
Don't think I'm out playing
Cause I'm inside waiting For you

I've felt the light, I'm
Satisfied that
The highest star is you
Satellite, I'm Holding tight
Beaming back to you

Don't you worry
I believe your story
You were put away
For something you didn't do
While I'm waiting
I've been saving My love


8.Longing to Belong

I'm falling harder than I've ever fell before
I'm falling faster while hoping I'll land in your arms
'Cause all my time is spent here longing to belong...to you

I dream of circles, perfect eyes within your face
My heart's an open wound that only you'd replace
And though the moon is rising, can't put your picture down
Love can be frightening when you fall

And when the time is right, I hope that you'll respond
Like when the wind gets tired, the ocean becomes calm
I may be dreaming but I'm longing to belong...to you


9.Hey Fahkah

You Fahkah, Fahkah


10.You're True

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'd be indebted to ya
Walk the dog and pay rent to ya
If you say the word, I'm yours
Oh I'm sure

Nothing ever goes my way
But with you here, that all have changed
Suddenly I'm a new born child
And I'm ready to live a while with you
So much left to do
And so I thank you dearly
For letting me see clearly
Open up, she said
You're true, be you
I'm at home in my own skin
I'm like an ocean's tide 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, you're true


11.Light Today

I saw the light - today x4

Silence loud and wind so low
The quiet building in the dark
Surrender to the game
I saw the light today

The silent scream that we're apart
I dare to dream for there you are
I bleed, but I won't break
I saw the light today x3 ... today, today............


12.Sleepless Nights

Through the sleepless nights
I cry for you
And wonder who
Is kissing you
These sleepless nights
Will break my heart in two

Somehow, through the days
I don't give in
I hide the tears
That wait within
But then through sleepless nights
I cry again

Why did you go?
Why did you go?
Don't you know, don't you know
I need you?

I keep hoping you'll come back to me
Oh let it be, please let it be
My love, please end these
Sleepless nights for me

Why did you go?
Why did you go?
Don't you know, don't you know
I need you?

I keep hoping you'll come back to me
Oh let it be, please let it be
My love, please end these
Sleepless nights for me
My love, please end these
Sleepless nights for me


13.Once in a While

Once in a while will you try to give
One little thought to me
Though someone else may be
Nearer to your heart?

Will you dream of the moments
I shared with you
Before we drifted apart
Once in a while?

In love's smoldering embers
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
The spark may burn again
I know that I'll be contented
With yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while

In love's smoldering embers
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
The spark may burn again
I know that I'll be contented
With yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while


14.Waving Palms

Instrumental


15.Tonight You Belong to Me

I know (I know) you belong
To somebody new
But tonight
You belong to me

Although (although) we're apart
You are a part of my heart
But tonight
You belong to me

Wait down by the stream
How sweet it will seem
Once more just to dream in
The moonlight
My honey I know
With the dawn
That you will be gone
But tonight
You belong to me

But tonight
You belong
To me


16.Dream a Little Dream

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper 'I love you'
Birds singin' in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty-night and kiss me
Hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
'Cause I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on
Oh craving your kiss
I'm longin' to linger till dawn
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
