Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - My Life's Work lyrics
Your rating:
You want to go
 From here to there. 
Where is this valley?
 Take me there.

 I will pull
 Ridge to ridge
 With great stone cracking,
 Make wondrous bridge. 

I take this load on, 
It is my life's work.
 To bring you to the light, 
Out of the dark. 

Our little house
 Can seem so small. 
This morning we found 
No love at all.

 I bust a hole
 In the ceiling so
 The light will flow
 And show

 My lack of grace, 
Your radiant face.
 They make it worth 
Our time, on Earth.

 I take this load on 
It is my life's work 
To bring you into the light
 And out of the dark.

 The morning cry 
Now a memory,
 The after prayer,
 Is all we see.

 So this song becomes
 The melody 
Of you
 As you're the song of me.
