A Field Song
You gave me a farm and I've sown all the fields
My wife and our children still weep
A stream through the valley
To nourish these hills would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
You gave me a heart and I've treated it right
But it murmurs and shakes when I sleep
Heart to be me with, to shake with, to beat with
Would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
You gave me the world and I've travelled its lands
Yet I'm always a guest in my keep
A place to call home, I could love, I could own
Would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
If I had a meadow I'd want for a wood!
If I had the sunlight I'd wish for a downpour!
I know an ill-wind blows nobody good
But if I had your love I'd want you some more
So give me a meadow I'll make for a wood!
Give me the sunlight and we'll create downpour!
Give me an ill-wind, I'll turn it to good!
And I'll take your love and I'll give you some more!
You gave me a farm and I've sown all the fields
Now all of our pastures are green
What they undertook to do
They Brough to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
What they undertook to do
They Brough to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
What they undertook to do
All things came to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
My wife and our children still weep
A stream through the valley
To nourish these hills would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
You gave me a heart and I've treated it right
But it murmurs and shakes when I sleep
Heart to be me with, to shake with, to beat with
Would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
You gave me the world and I've travelled its lands
Yet I'm always a guest in my keep
A place to call home, I could love, I could own
Would lay all my troubles to sleep
Would be fine by me
Would be fine by me
A stream through the valley to lap at our heels
Would be fine, just fine by me!
If I had a meadow I'd want for a wood!
If I had the sunlight I'd wish for a downpour!
I know an ill-wind blows nobody good
But if I had your love I'd want you some more
So give me a meadow I'll make for a wood!
Give me the sunlight and we'll create downpour!
Give me an ill-wind, I'll turn it to good!
And I'll take your love and I'll give you some more!
You gave me a farm and I've sown all the fields
Now all of our pastures are green
What they undertook to do
They Brough to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
What they undertook to do
They Brough to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
What they undertook to do
All things came to pass
All things hang like a drop of dew
Upon a blade of grass
