An Appalachian Love Song

I've been holding on forever
I've been holding on to you
Like a weathered old maple
To a mountain ridged blue

And I've been here a shaking
Like a fear-stricken man
For the sound of your name
Sends a shiver in this land
The sound of your name
Sends a shiver in this land

Have you ever heard silence
In a snow covered plain
My shouts become whispers
But I'll shout all the same

So I'll shout to the evening
And tell them your mine
Til the stars become jealous
And shine extra bright

I've been holding on forever
I've been holding on to you
Like a weathered old maple
To a mountain ridged blue

And I've been here a shaking
Like a fear-stricken man
For the sound of your name
Sends a shiver in this land
The sound of your name
Sends a shiver in this land
