Handful of Earth

Lyrics

Think clover and glade if you will Harmony green as you must I cried as I walked up that hill Where everything had turned to dust Looking back over the years And over my shoulder as well Pain ringing inside my ears And wishes thrown into that well Handful of earth what is it worth? This life is contained by our death and our birth To wake on this morning and kiss at the ground For this handful of earth that I've found Think heaven and song if you can Music eternally sending The devil turned into a man And every branch started bending Look at my face if you're able I'm hardly blameless at all Spitting my food on the table And laughing at trees when they fall Handful of earth what is it worth? This life is contained by our death and our birth To wake on this morning and kiss at the ground For this handful of earth that I've found Now that I've found it at last Here comes the mercury showing Hiding and changing so fast Chaos behind it a'towing By jove you've got it again Everything fits in a circle And while there is nothing to win Nothing to lose is eternal
