The Last Tree Standing
	.: lyrics :.
there's cattle out lowing there's the last of the frost and the sun going down on the stubble and the cross and the shadow falling down out in front of the house The shadow of the Last Tree Standing I buried the dream of our house and our land buried the dream of my children buried my dreams and the things I'd planned The shadow of the Last Tree Standing we worked this field and we worked this hill we worked the byre and we worked the till worked til the sun went down all still and the shadow of the Last Tree Standing I buried the dream of my neighbours smile buried the dream of the last long mile buried the dream of growing a while The shadow of the Last Tree Standing Well the revenue came and the revenue went bills to be paid and the money all spent food on the table or paying the rent and the Shadow of the Last Tree Standing And I dreamt one night of this hillside steep dreamt of the forest both wide and deep and the laughter of children jumping the leap In The shadow of the Last Tree Standing 2007 Sg Walker
