Hem - The Jack Pine lyrics
[Hem - The Jack Pine lyrics]
We set the lark to flight
The smoke fell low and even
It crowned the flames but blocked the light
And as the blazes passed us
Across the columbine
The seeds laid in the ashes were
Opening below the pine
Opening below the pine
You fallen, broken seed
The day returned to you
You dreamt of fire and woke to find it true
Just like the rains in winter
When the levees bear and bend
The road has got a foot of water
But the fields are full again
You fallen, broken seed
The day returned to you
And shook you from your sleep
And laid the world to view
You dreamt of fire and woke to find it true
