Lyrics
Blackberry Stone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, I own this field and I wrote this guide
And I have no reason to reason with you
I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you were lowered
But I'd understand that I'd never let it go
I'd be sad that I never held your hand as you were lowered
But I'd understand that the world does what it does
And you never did learn to let the little things go
And you never did learn to let me be
And you never did learn to let little people grow
And you never did learn how to see
But I whisper that I love this man, now and for forever
To your soul as it floats out off the window
To the world that you turned your back on
To the world that never really let you be
And I am lower now and lower still
And you did always say that one day I would suffer
You did always say that people get their pay
You did always say that I was going places
And that you wouldn't have it any other way
But I couldn't turn my back
On a world for what I lack, it wouldn't let me
But I couldn't turn my back
On a world for what I like, I need it
And I couldn't turn my back on a world
For what I lack, it wouldn't let me
And I couldn't turn my back
On a world for what I like, I need it
And I shouldn't turn my back
On a sweet smelling blackberry stone
