My Love Lies In the Ground by Tim O'Brien

My Love Lies In the Ground Lyrics

[00:29.13] My love lies in the cold, cold ground
[00:32.37] In a grave not one week old
[00:35.27] To kiss once more your cold, cold lips
[00:37.42] I'd give my weight in gold, gold
[00:40.10] I'd give my weight in gold
[00:43.84] I can't see clear to leave your side
[00:47.12] I never more will roam
[00:49.67] I'll make my bed upon your grave
[00:52.02] A pillow from your stone, stone
[00:54.94] A pillow from your stone
[00:57.39]
[01:22.14] There is no fire can warm me now
[01:25.74] No blanket made of down
[01:27.59] The warmth I feel is from your soul
[01:30.19] Seepin' through the ground, ground
[01:32.69] Seepin' through the ground
[01:36.37] And I do not want a house of gold
[01:38.96] Or a cold dark cave
[01:42.13] I'll make my home in the musty soil
[01:44.35] That lies around your grave, grave
[01:47.04] That lies around your grave
[01:49.89]
[02:17.52] I can't abide their laughter
[02:21.47] It cuts me like a blade
[02:23.88] I prefer the night owl call
[02:26.40] And the rhythm of my spade, spade
[02:28.84] The rhythm of my spade
[02:32.51] Soon I'll be at your side
[02:36.08] Apart we'll never be
[02:38.46] And I won't hear those above
[02:41.48] That make a fool of me, me
[02:43.28] That make a fool of me
[02:54.83]
