lifeblood: songs: lyrics: butler field

old butler field is empty
wooden bleachers in the sun
cricket click deep in the bush
it does no good to run
they say it does no good to run

run i have most of my life
from one coast to another
the island's in my blood
i must stay to know my lover
i must stay to know my lover

st. simons you give joy
and sorrow
there's hope for tomorrow
if i can sing on you today
hey
ah
ah
mmmm

st. simons you give joy
and sorrow
there's hope for tomorrow
if i can sing on you today
hey
ah
ah
