Lyrics:
The news did arrive slack jawed and late My lover is dead, some cruel twist of fate The dust will settle over the grave My branded heart will never be saved The rusty dawn rise to my feet To meet me in the vacant street Where dogs will bite and scratch at my heals 200 miles my lips will be sealed From fetching the shovel to digging her tomb Our unborn child still lies in the womb I’ve carried her body across forsaken land And laid her in the earth with my own two hands The hills before me and the valleys between The stars above me and the heavens unseen The sullen shacks by the side of the trail I'm broken, I'm starving, I'm lovesick, I'm frail The path that I follow will turn and will bend But all will have meaning in the end To collect her body, tender and fair And run my rough hands threw her dark wavy hair From fetching the shovel to digging her tomb Our unborn child still lies in the womb I’ve carried her body across forsaken land And laid her in the earth with my own two hands Gripping the casket, dripping in tears Lowering her down with my hopes and my fears A prayer and a ring go tumbling down Landing softly upon another box in the ground From fetching the shovel to digging her tomb Our unborn child still lies in the womb Oh, I’ve carried her body across forsaken land And laid her in the earth with my own two hands
