Groves - Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I know that you’re ready to go

But stay a while

And fake a smile

I know that you’re ready to go

Cause there you lay and stare away

Out the window, the houses through the groves

And to the mountains down the road

I will follow in your footsteps

When I walk away the sadness in the snow

Don’t go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time I’m home

Don’t go

I’ll be right beside you when you rest your broken bones

Don’t go

I know that you’re ready to go

The sky above, the soaring dove

I don’t think I’m ready to go

Here alone, you are the stone

That holds me in position

With your strong and steady wisdom

Don’t you walk away

I will be there in the morning

At the sunrise if you promise to be strong

Don’t go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time I’m home

Don’t go

I’ll be right beside you when you rest your broken bones

How could I slow down time

As the waters climb

Had your hand in mine

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

How can I know new life

As the waters rise

I’ll just close my eyes

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Don’t go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time I’m home

Don’t go

I’ll be right beside you when you rest your broken bones

Don’t go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time I’m home

Don’t go

I’ll be right beside you when you rest your broken bones
