Lyrics

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
