Little New Bern - The War and Treaty

There’s a house in my dreams

Sitting on Grand Lane

I can hear her grandma sing

While the morning sun’s awake

My grandpa was a gravedigger

Paid the bills to rest his head

He wanted no courage

When he’s gone and dead

One thing I learned

I won’t forget Little New Bern

Take my hand and I’ll take yours

Feel my heart beating fast

There is so much in store

Who said good things can’t last?

This moment had a curse

Leaves you longing for more

Won’t taste this grace

Eat your heart out any more

One thing I learned

I won’t forget Little New Bern

Would you please take me back

To the place where lovers pray

There is where my heart is at

There is so much more to say
