Raise The Ring Lyrics

Shadow stand behind me
Do as I do
Walk me to school

The neighbors grow flowers I can't name
But I know my way by the shapes of the lawns

Come on baby raise the ring
Salt your eyes and feel the sting
Time holds a knife to everything
Come on baby raise the ring

Springtime smells like damp stone
The field is muddy, I hold buds in my hand

Summer leaves me breathless
Full exertion
Sweetness offered

Grandfather's funeral
The corn was high
The leaves were rust
The sound of the rifle made me cry
Oooooh, oooooh
Come on baby raise the ring
Salt your eyes and feel the sting
Time holds a knife to everything
Come on baby raise the ring
Come on baby raise the ring
