(Dan Messe) |
|
In the summer of my wedding |
|
As the corn burned in the field |
|
Oh I lay down for my |
|
Baby And let the sweet smoke stain my heels |
|
Well I lay there til the midnight |
|
When the dogs, they run through town |
|
And I rose up just to listen |
|
And I never lay back down |
|
Then the morning, it came upon me |
|
And I set my soul to search |
|
From the tall grass down the main road |
|
To the stained glass at the church |
|
Lord my shepard help me pray |
|
Though I left my heart to stray |
|
Though I left my heart untrue |
|
I can follow |
|
I do I do |
|
And I can name them in my dreaming |
|
I can set my soul to rest |
|
I can chain them to my body |
|
Let them settle at my breast |
|
Now see them coming to my wedding |
|
Where I will teach them not to stray |
|
Oh they'll carry my salvation |
