Back When Ted Loved Sylvia

[00:00:00] Back When Ted Loved Sylvia - Nanci Griffith

[00:00:10] They both wrote poetry

[00:00:13] In fact that was how they met

[00:00:18] He was a Yorkshire man in Cambridge

[00:00:25] She was from Massachusetts

[00:00:28] They spoke and they fell in love

[00:00:34] They kissed and picked daffodils

[00:00:39] She came across the ocean

[00:00:45] Just to bid her heart goodbye

[00:00:50] The hawk next to his goddess

[00:00:56] They were glorious to see

[00:01:00] Back when Ted loved Sylvia

[00:01:07] Close friends disapproved

[00:01:16] Said they ought to wait

[00:01:21] They did not care with all that said

[00:01:28] And married nonetheless

[00:01:32] They traveled and they taught

[00:01:37] A life of academia

[00:01:42] Typewriters and cocktails

[00:01:48] Angry verses and sad pleas

[00:01:53] Dutiful wife and mother

[00:01:58] The poet behind her man

[00:02:03] Back when Ted loved Sylvia

[00:02:09] The tempests that were howling

[00:02:19] And tearing them apart

[00:02:24] Were forces that had been in place

[00:02:30] To wreck them from the start

[00:02:34] So she stayed home with the kids

[00:02:49] Collecting poems in a jar

[00:02:54] He had his lectures and soon a mistress

[00:03:02] And left her all alone

[00:03:05] Why did she end it all

[00:03:10] Was he just to blame

[00:03:16] There only two that know for sure

[00:03:22] And neither one remain

[00:03:26] I don't need an answer

[00:03:31] I prefer to read between the lines

[00:03:36] Back when Ted loved Sylvia

[00:03:43] Back when Ted loved Sylvia
