Darrell Scott - Oh Sweet Longing lyrics
[Darrell Scott - Oh Sweet Longing lyrics]
Golden to give you away
With Riesling and huckleberries
Gracing the table
Teaching the children to laugh and to pray
I grieved for you in the hills of Sienna
I called out your name to the great North Sea
I reached for your hand in
A snowfield near Gardner
My longing for you always brought me to me
Oh, sweet longing
I drink from a cup that will never be filled
Oh, sweet longing
I long for you now and I always will
Always will
From the foot of a redwood
I looked up in wonder
From the side of a canyon
In fresh fallen snow
On the bank of a mountain
Stream I heard you calling
I know I must follow wherever you go
Oh, sweet longing
I drink from a cup that will never be filled
Oh, sweet longing
I long for you now and I always will
Always will
I live in the hope you stir up inside me
Filling my heart and filling my eyes
Like a river love flows to
The valley below me
I stand on a mountain and hear my own cry
I believe in old souls, I believe in forever
I believe that this moment is all we can see
I believe in the one who calls lovers forward
My longing for love always brings me to me
Oh, sweet longing
I drink from a cup that will never be filled
Oh, sweet longing
I long for you now and I always will
Always will
