Nathan Rogers - Land Of The Living Skies lyrics

In the burning light of dawn In the stillness of the morning He held her close he kissed her eyes Under a blanket of living skies. They were lovers all through school They always were together And on her hand a golden ring Within which sat forever. But a young man's heart is brave The same brave boy she wed Has gone away in uniform Sleeps in a soldier's bed. In the colors of the East In the blazing light of morning She dreamed of lands in a sweet sunrise Here in a land of living skies. So when the reverend came to call She did not need to answer She knew he'd met with his demise Gone to the land of the living skies. She put on her good clothes She stood out on the rise She called his name aloud And these were his replies. There is no more anger here Nor is there cause for mourning In the untamed wheat and the feral ryes Here in the land of the living skies. Grieve not for we who live In the amber dawn of morning In the untamed wheat and the feral ryes Here in the land of the living skies (3X)
