This Earth Lyrics
by Dar Williams
Ssuch has been my time on
This earth, this earth,
Then my wife returns, more beautiful and when she left
The night before,
I show her things I made
...of furs, diamonds, snowflakes, tears of gold
She murmurs prays of small cores
I smile to see her happiness
Silver webs with sandy grain
That catch and told real drops of rain
Such has been my time on
This earth, this earth,
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e80364-dar_williams~this_earth_lyrics.html ]
When I'm feeling back ... go
Of stills and bury something deep
And stand back and push a button
From a distance, watch the earth explode
