Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come as we go far away From the noise of the street Walk a path so narrow To a place where we feel at ease [Chorus 1] Some think it's so haunting To be drawn to the cemetery ground as we There's a stillness here Thankful found [Verse 2] Child's pose angelic A stone lamb at her feet Part the matted overgrowth To read the carven elegy [Chorus 1] Some think it's so haunting To be drawn to the cemetery ground as we There's a stillness here Thankful found [Verse 3] Born in New Albion Of Rice family elite Wed to Myron Bilowe Thrice with sons Blessed was she [Chorus 2] Some think it's so haunting To be drawn to the cemetery ground as we God's acre is a fenced-in hallowed ground [Verse 3] Here soon to rise up Amelia tender and sweet Her last words spoken "All is well, all is peace" [Chorus 3] And some think it's so haunting To be drawn to the cemetery ground as we God's acre is a fenced-in hallowed ground [Chorus 4] Some still think it's so haunting To be drawn to the cemetery ground as we God's acre is a fenced-in hallowed ground [Outro] It's a hallowed ground Oh oh
