Kate Rusby I Am Stretched on Your Grave Lyrics
I am stretched on your grave and i'll will lie here forever,
If your hands were in mine, I'd be sure they'd not sever,
My appletree, my brightness it's time we were together,
For I smell of the earth and am worn by the weather.
When my family think that I'm safley in my bed,
From morn until night I am stretched at your head.
Calling out to the earth with tears hot and wild,
For the loss of a girl that I loved as a child.
Do you remember the night oh the night when we were lost
In the shade of the blackthorn and the touch of the frost.
Thanks be to Jesus we did what was right
And your maiden head still is your Pillar of Light.
Oh The priests and the friars they approach me in dread,
oh for i love you still oh my life, and your dead.
And still would be your shelter through rain and through storm
And with you in the cold grave I cannot sleep warm.
So I am stretched on your grave and i'll will lie here forever,
If your hands were in mine, I'd be sure they'd not sever,
My appletree, my brightness it's time we were together,
For I smell of the earth and am worn by the weather."
