Blackberry Stone

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 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'd whisper that I love this man, now and for forever To your soul as it floats out of 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 the world For what I lack wouldn't let me But I couldn't turn my back on the world For what I lack, anyway And I couldn't turn my back on the world For what I lack wouldn't let me And I couldn't turn my back on the world For what I lack, I need it And I shouldn't turn my back On a sweet smelling blackberry stone
