Harvest Sacrifice

[Intro] [Wind] Dry grass beneath my worn out leather boots [Verse: Intimate] The moon hangs full above the gathered grain I've walked these rows through every changing rain New life has sprung from soil we worked with care I'll leave my love to answer earth's own prayer [Pre-Chorus] My hand still burns from where your fingers laced My heart still holds the warmth of your embrace [Chorus: Expansive] The earth cries out for what we have to give [Hook: Emotional] My love stays with you where the wild wheat lives I bring my all to alter of the ground Thankful for the life that we have found [Verse: Intimate] We shared a summer soft with golden light We held each other through the longest night Now frost comes early to the valley floor I take this step I've always known I would [Pre-Chorus] Your name is carved deep in my bending bones I carry it with me to the offering stone [Chorus: Expansive] The earth calls out for what I have to give [Hook: Emotional] My love stays with you where the wild wheat lives I lay my freedom down upon this ground Thankful for the love that I have found [Bridge: Vulnerable] I don't want to go but I know it's time Fate draws the line between your hand and mine Every seed must fall to feed the spring Every goodbye is just another offering I'll not look back to pull my heart away I'll leave it here with you, come what may [Chorus: Anthemic] The earth receives the gift I have to give [Hook: Emotional] My love stays with you where the wild wheat lives My bones will feed the ground where wheat will grow My love for you will never let you go [Outro: Fading] [Wind] My love stays with you where the wild wheat grows Fading away to the autumn moon
