Bradley Hathaway - If I Should Die lyrics

Recite a poem, sing me a song If i know it, i'll hum along The river's wide and the floor is deep Hills around and the mountains steep If I should die and you should live Know that I gave all that I had to give Bury me in an empty field Neath' the big oak tree on the top of a hill So is the world big, or are we small? What is it that we want most of all? Warm nights, cool days Someone to love us and to always stay If I should die and you should live Know that I gave all that I had to give Bury me in an empty field Neath' the big oak tree on the top of a hill Sons and Fathers Mothers and Daughters Are we getting closer or are we farther? The desert's dry, the ocean's wet Keep your promises and don't forget If I should die and you should live Know that I gave all that I had to give Bury me in an empty field Neath' the big oak tree on the top of a hill
