secret keeper (full length version) - kate rusby lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i am old woman beech by the river
to the warm sun i reach, caregiver
i lull the sleeper, secret keeper

[verse 2]
when the boy he carved his name, the stars were shinin’
and the girl she did the same, the moon was smilin’
their love grew deeper, secret keeper

[chorus]
and here i stand, i gaze on the new
from this great north land
like me they grew, grew

[verse 3]
when the boy worked underground my roots could hear him
and the girl, her belly round, was always near him
their love grew deeper, secret keeper

[verse 4]
now the years have passed along, my branches stronger
and the boy and girl have gone, here no longer
i lull the sleepers, secret keeper

[chorus]
and here i stand, i gaze on the new
from this great north land
like me they grew, grew
[instrumental break]

[verse 5]
i have seen the skyline shift as i’ve grown older
let the future be a gift as it grows bolder
my roots grow deeper, secret keeper

[verse 6]
then a boy with eyes i know, he stands beneath me
he’s brought a girl with him to show the names carved in me
our roots grow deeper, secret keeper

[chorus]
and here i stand, i gaze on the new
from this great north land
like me they grew, grew
like me they grew, grew
