Bury My Heart

from Stuck In A Groove by Frank D. Hill

/

lyrics

Find me a river
without a valley near.
Carry me across it
on your back my dear.

Bury my heart
deep beneath a stone.
Tear my world apart
to prove I'm not alone.

Sunlight off the water
ripples through your hair;
you are the river's daughter
without a drop to spare.

Polished, timeless stones
line your silted bed.
Receive my weary bones
and claim my troubled head.

Carve out the marrow;
disobey the past.
Listen to tomorrow;
your sorrow cannot last.

And even if I could,
I wouldn't take it away;
wind me through the wood
and watch the shadows play.

Reeds among the shallows
dancing in the breeze
sing of ancient hollows
and leave my mind at peace.

Carry me to sea
beyond the time-worn shoals
where I will be free
to shed this earthbound soul.
