Lyrics for When You Give Your Heart
Since you lay my burdens Since you lay my burdens Since you lay my burdens down All the troubles I've been Dragging down this trail Seep into the thirsty ground Since you turned your light Upon my darkened dale The pollinators flex their wings And take into the air Spin their emeraldine Webs across the swales and prairies And my stampeding buffalo Stops in her tracks and watches the snow Falling through the old oak tree When you give your heart to me This is my song of love Gathered from stuff above The wires, feathers and the clouds This is a song for you A spring comes bubbling through The place whenever you're around And my stampeding buffalo Stops in her tracks and watches the snow Falling through the old oak tree When you give your heart to me
