Lời bài hát
0:18Like faithful oxen through the chalk
0:24With dragging tails of history walk
0:28Soon confuse the compass and the cross
0:36Carefully and cursively fill we our travelling diaries with loss
0:55Beneath an angry Bible flood
1:01Did you and I first learn to love
1:05In my father's car we came to know
1:12And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below
1:30Heavy As as a history book can be
1:34I will carry it with me oh Lord
1:46Maybe And when the bitterness has gone
1:50There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more
2:03Barefoot in a rowing boat
2:08You lose your shoes and freeze your toes
2:11And say I wear my sorrow like a crown
2:18And throw your arms around my head and see it there in gold and red and brown
2:34Heavy As as a history book can be
2:38I will carry it with me oh Lord
2:50Maybe And when the bitterness has gone
2:54There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more
3:06We'll soon forget our parents' names
3:14Like dogs will drive the wolves away
3:22And weep with fingertips opposed
3:27A Like church where nobody congregates
3:38But sweetness sings in the pasture
3:42We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth
3:46If sand and salt have the answer
3:49Then the act itself will be louder than the word
3:54And I'll be on your side
3:55And I'll be on your side
4:01And I'll be on your side
4:03And I'll be on your side
Like faithful oxen through the chalk With dragging tails of history walk Soon confuse the compass and the cross Carefully and cursively fill we our travelling diaries with loss Beneath an angry Bible flood Did you and I first learn to love In my father's car we came to know And shivered in our painted clothes and paired like every animal below Heavy As as a history book can be I will carry it with me oh Lord Maybe And when the bitterness has gone There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more Barefoot in a rowing boat You lose your shoes and freeze your toes And say I wear my sorrow like a crown And throw your arms around my head and see it there in gold and red and brown Heavy As as a history book can be I will carry it with me oh Lord Maybe And when the bitterness has gone There'll be sweetness on our tongues once more We'll soon forget our parents' names Like dogs will drive the wolves away And weep with fingertips opposed A Like church where nobody congregates But sweetness sings in the pasture We throw ourselves on the mercy of the earth If sand and salt have the answer Then the act itself will be louder than the word And I'll be on your side And I'll be on your side And I'll be on your side And I'll be on your side
