Lyrics
Fields of Forever Ghostly mist and gates of iron, silver wreath around the moon Shovel leaning on a backhoe, match struck in a midnight gloom There’s a bond among the shadows, even sunshine can’t sever They surround that lonely digger, tending fields of forever Men who laid like dust and litter, just below an overpass Share with all a final shelter, made of short and pampered grass Then there’s others who once sweated, over hammers and levers While a tick-tock time clock marched them, into fields of forever And November leaves are brittle, sad and brown Hanging low like the ears of some old hound Fallen ones are swept away by unseen brooms Where tonight a breeze can find some breathing room Yet a higher wind will carry, leaves of righteous endeavor And they reach into the starlight, up from fields of forever Now there’s smoke among the spirits, from the digger’s cigarette As he kneels beside his shovel, for a man he never met For success does not lay claim to, people wealthy or clever But the faith of one who’s knelt down, over fields of forever ©2008 Robert George - Mark Kaufman
