Raggedstone Hill

(album: Stand Upright In A Cool Place - 2012)

It's the same as always on Raggedstone Hill
To my last dying breath and forever until
My sun stops shining, seasons fail to change
Oh this pointless life carved on this sorry hill
Leave a trail straight to heaven for no one did I kill
Late at night she walks the path
It's the closest she can get
To the pain and the suffering in his blood and his sweat

Set me free, be with me till the morning we can be
Immortalised for all to see and hear
In the silence, yeah we're free
Yeah, we're free

Her gentle words, her ruby lips, her flowing auburn hair
The softest skin I ever kissed was heaven just right there
Instead I start my daily climb, my days will never change
But my love like a bird flies so high freed from its cage

Set me free, be with me till the morning we can be
Immortalised for all to see and hear
In the silence, yeah we're free
Yeah, we're free

Can you hear me?
So free
Can't you see?

I can never forget you, there's nothing to ease the pain
Spend my days on my knees but I'll never pray again
'Cause God is the reason for this evil I've been dealt
But old Mother Nature showed me the day I met you
The heart is as wild as the wind and real love is true
Now I save the seconds for the moments we could spend
And dream of another world where we can love again

Set me free, be with me till the morning we can be
Immortalised for all to see and hear
In the silence, yeah we're free
Yeah, we're free
Set me free, be with me till the morning we can be
Immortalised for all to see and hear
In the silence, yeah we're free
Oh, we're free
