"Cover Me Gently" lyrics

"Cover Me Gently"
(feat. Jon Snodgrass)
(from "The Flame In The Flood" soundtrack)


Oh, I came out of the gutter
Wide open rain
Part of me shuddered
Part of me swayed
I walked to the end
Give you my hand
My blood, my sweat and my tears

Cover me gently
For I'll never leave
Silent and empty
For I cannot see
No cracks of light
To raise these old eyes
Falling through the ground

Hold on to your family
Like you must do
Been there and I know the truth
Return in the winter, delivering news
Calling your last earthly words

Cover me gently
For I'll never leave
Silent and empty
For I cannot see
No cracks of light
To raise these old eyes
Falling through the ground

Cover me gently
For I'll never leave
Silent and empty
For I cannot see
No cracks of light
To raise these old eyes

Falling... I've fallen
I've fallen, I've fallen
I've fallen, I've fallen
I've fallen straight through the ground
