Dolores Keane - Solid Ground lyrics

Your rating:
Down the boggy den, foxes clashes brown trough the autumn state
Spreading hazel russles as they bend and swayed as they laid in wait
My fathers they have walked this road and now I know, yes 
Didn't they know?
There is no great and heavy load and now I know, yes 
Didn't they know?

I'm passed the island face the empress sun beats down showing me the green
I hear it wild and loud, feel it wild and proud the way it's always been
My fathers they have looked this way and now I know, yes 
Didn't they know?
No clever words we had to say and now I know, yes 
Didn't they know

Now I stand on solid ground
I stand on solid ground, on solid ground
Now I stand on solid ground
I stand on solid ground, on solid ground

It's the land that is our wisdom
It's the land that shines us through
It's the land that feeds our children
It's the land you cannot own the land, the land owns you

Where is the honest fool
The open soul the simple smile?
Who'll be warm and through for the passing stranger
Who may rest a while

My fathers may have said these things and now I know, yes
Didn't they know?
The joy a shared friendship brings
And now I know, yes 
Didn't they know?

Now we stand on solid ground
We stand on solid ground, on solid ground
Now we stand on solid ground
We stand on solid ground, on solid ground

It's the land that is our wisdom
It's the land that shines us through
It's the land that feeds our children
It's the land you cannot own the land, the land owns you

It's the land that is our wisdom
It's the land that shines us through
It's the land that feeds our children
It's the land you cannot own the land, the land owns you
