chris dorman - family farm كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
i am, i am phil terra
i was born a farmer’s son
my father, he taught me how to sow
he told me that the land could teach me how to grow
if i could keep open my heart
never be apart from the ebb and flow of life
and i, i still hear the words of the one and only verse
that he sang before he died

[chorus]
for the land on which we stand
is the only thing we have that can
withstand the weight of our lives
so learn to treat the land
like you treat your own two hands
honor its strength, cherish
the gifts you hold
[verse 2]
well, i never needed his strength more
when they knocked upon my door
and said, “it’s time to go”
those words struck deep in my heart
to lose the family farm
is to lose all i know
and my father’s fate and his mother’s before
is what i’d wished for my son, who lies still yet unborn
and all he could say, all he could say was “i’m sorry __
leave now while you can
you have been warned”

[chorus]
but the land on which we stand
is the only thing we have that can
withstand the weight of our lives
so learn to treat the land
like you treat your own two hands
honor its strength, cherish
the gifts you hold

[bridge]
and oh, no, oh, no
oh, no, oh, no, oh
[verse 3]
’cause you see, sir
seeds give birth to being
what we grow is who we are
it is sacred, it is sweet
and greed, greed is the destroyer
it takes vision from our eyes
and the land beneath our feet

[chorus]
and the land on which we stand
is the only thing we have that can
withstand the weight of our lives
so learn to treat the land
like you treat your own two hands
honor its strength, cherish
the gifts you hold

[outro]
and if it all comes crashing down
well, i don’t have the strength to save this town
and if we’re all just meant to blow away
please know that i tried my best to stay
please know that i tried my best to stay
please know that i tried my best to stay
