“Heart Of The Country”
Heart of the country
The flame fades though
I see to it sadly
It takes me further away
Than I have ever been
I wait and the darkness comes
I pray for my only one
And I wonder if you ever
Will see this land again
We took this land
And we brought it goodness
It’s taken everything
And left only emptiness
I am not broken
Although I have the seeds in me
I wait and the darkness comes
I pray for my only one
And I wonder if you ever
Will see this land again
I hide my face against the sun
I hide my fear from everyone
But I’ve had enough of secrets
They’re all lies
We’re scared to tell
I just need someone to be with
I just need to say you fell
There’s nothing out here
But me and a whisper
And now it’s falling
I won’t even listen
I watch the fall and it’s
Time that I was leaving too
I wait and the darkness comes
I pray for my only one
And I wonder if you ever
Will see this land again
