Blackberry Stone Songtext / Lyric

Well, I own this field
and I wrote this sky
and I have no reason, to reason with you. I'd be sad that I never held your hand, as you were lowered,
but I'd understand that I'd never let it go.
I'd be sad that I never held your hand,as you were lowered,
but I'd understand that the world does what it does.

And you never did learn to let the little things go
and you never did learn to let me be
and you never did learn to let little people grow
and you never did learn how to see.

But I whisper that I love this man,
now and for forever to your soul,
as it floats out off the window
to the world that you turned your back on,
to the world that never really let you be.

And I am Laura now, and Laura still,
and you did always say that one day I would suffer.
You did always say that people get their pay.
You did always say that I was going places
and that you wouldn't have it any other way.

But I couldn't turn my back on a world,
for what I like wouldn't let me,
but I couldn't turn my back on a world for
and I couldn't turn my back on sweet smelling
Blackberry stone.
