Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI) ©1997

lyrics

watch the sun play on your hair
as we stare
across the fields of nurture
weeds that grow up in my heart
now i will start
to pull them by the roots

yeah consider my last remark
but don't leave me out here in the dark
where i go
a stone cast in the undertow
where i go willingly

hold the promise bright and sure
keep your heart pure
as the shovel turns the earth
elements will have their say
grace hope and pain
yes tended faithfully

yeah circumscribe that last remark
carve it deep down into my heart
where i go
a stone cast in the undertow
where i go willingly

steel yourself against the night
yeah desperate times
men will do their desperate deeds
just before the sky's erased
i see Your face
all over the fields of nurture

yeah big kiss for everyone
i grab you and try to hold on
cause i know
i jump into the undertow
where i go willingly
