Charlotte Martin - I Am Stretched Out on Your Grave lyrics

I am stretched on your grave And I'll lie here forever With your hands in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever My apple tree, my brightness It's time we were together For I smell of the earth And am worn by the weather When my family thinks That I'm safely in bed From night until morning I am stretched at your head Calling out to the earth With tears hot and wild For the loss of the girl That I loved as a child The priests and the friars Approach me in dread Because I still love you My love, and you're dead I'll still be your shelter Through rain and through storm And with you in your cold grave I cannot sleep warm I am stretched on your grave And I lie here forever If your hand's in mine I'd be sure we'd not sever My apple tree, my brightness It's time we were together For I smell of the earth And am worn by the weather She's alive I see her coming She's alive I see her running She's alive I see her coming She's alive She's alive I see her coming She's alive I see her running She's alive I see her coming She's alive She's alive I see her coming She's alive I see her running She's alive I see her coming She's alive She's alive I see her coming She's alive I see her running She's alive I see her coming She's alive Don't you forget to look up Don't you forget to look up Don't you forget to look up Don't you forget to look up
