I grew up on the edges of a beautiful earth. And my roots
grew deep in that gift. And I'd cross the field that led from our house,
to the house where my grandparents lived.
Chorus:1 -
But change has been running like wind through
the fields, some things you can't stop with your hands. And paper and
lawyers and banks are still stronger, than anyone's love of the land.
Some things you can't stop with your hands.
Now I live in that house where my grandfather died, Ten
years ago. He lived there alone, since the day that she passed. And
now They've both found their new home.
Chorus 2:
But change has been running like wind through
our lives. Some things you can't stop with your hands. And time and
God are still stronger, Than pain or fear or my plans. Some things you
can't stop with your hands.
Bridge: Now there's a field full of memories. It's covered
in factory, And I'm not allowed on the ground that they use. I sank
my soles into that earth. My blood and my family in the dirt. But now
there's no more ground to lose. No, no, no...
Repeat Chorus 2
