letra de i am stretched on your grave - frank harte

Loading...

[verse 1]
i am stretched on your grave
and i will lie there forever
if your hands were in mine
i am sure we’d not sever

my apple tree, my brightness
it’s time we were together
for i smell of the earth
and am worn by the weather

[verse 2]
when my family thinks
that i’m safe in my bed
from night until morning
i am stretched on your grave

calling out to the air
with tears hot and wild
my grief for the girl
that i loved as a child

[verse 3]
do you remember
the night we were lost
‘neath the shade of the blackth-rn
and the chill of the frost?
oh thanks be to jesus
we did what was right
and your maiden head still
is your pillar of light

[verse 4]
the priests and the friars
approach me in dread
because i still love you
my life, and you’re dead

i would still be your shelter
through rain and through storm
but with you in your cold grave
i cannot sleep warm

[verse 5]
so i’m stretched on your grave
and i will lie there forever
if your hands were in mine
i am sure we’d not sever

my apple tree, my brightness
it’s time we were together
for i smell of the earth
and am worn by the weather
