Burden of Belief

from Burden of Belief by Hugh Christopher Brown

/

lyrics

We love these hills and we love these trees
I love you still same as you love me
Love won’t let us slip
Cracks me like a whip

Quiet our hearts in fields where we walk
Quiet our thoughts our tongues in a lock
Hold on now don’t slip
Let’s not loose the grip

Quiet fire burning in my spine
Fire must be fire all the time

Some people ask the grass why it grows
Then it only frustrates them to know
Looking for relief
From the burden of belief

Same bird who came and sang in the spring
His voice is strong now, come hear him sing
The beating and the heart
Till death do us part

Spring in the heart, branches under feet
Somewhere to start some words to repeat:
“Hold on now don’t slip,
Let’s not break the grip”

I don’t know hwere from this soul is borrowed
Only in trust we return tomorrow
Night will still be black
Through the rush and wait
We’re both going back dog eared, loved and late
