lyrics

Once born a farmer, brought in hay
Dry as dirt, caked in clay
You’d have swept up after me
And ever resurrected me

Born a brawler, knuckles scarred
You’re in my corner, thank the lord
Waiting to repair my lips
With healing from your tender kiss

Let’s close our eyes and try to sleep
To dream a time when you and I
Are close enough to hear our hearts
Side by side in this lifetime of ours
Side by side in this lifetime of ours….

When a sailor, went away
I watch your figure slip from me
Faithful to me every day
Waiting on some word from me

Now born a hunter, curse my luck
They tear their eyes from honest blood
Run their cars over animals
Stare at screens till they are old

Let’s close our eyes and try to sleep
To dream a time when you and I
Are close enough to hear our hearts
Side by side in this lifetime of ours

Let’s close our eyes and try to sleep
To dream a time when you and I
Are close enough to hear our hearts
So far apart in this lifetime of ours
So far apart in this lifetime of ours

So far apart, I've been hunting for you....
