The Field
Mason Jennings
Every step I take
Takes me farther from you
Every move I make
Reminds me that I'll always love you
Since you were a child
We've built our lives around you
How am I supposed to live
In this world we made without you
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are?
Are you a shooting star?
Can you say my name?
Darling, can you hear me?
Tell me where's your heart
Now that it stopped beating
It's right here
It's right here
It's right here
When you joined the war
We were so proud of you
You seemed so grown up
Living life the way we taught you
Then your first letter came
It sounded nothing like you
It took all my strength
To keep myself from running to you
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are?
Are you a shooting star?
Darling, say my name
Darling, can you hear me?
Tell me where's your heart
Now that it stopped beating
It's right here
It's right here
It's right here
And it will always be
Until the sun dries the ocean
And you will always be
My little one
If I was the president, If I was that man
I would walk out with those kids
Out across the sand
If I was the president, if I was that brave
I would take a shovel then dig each child their graves
If I was the president, and my world turned black
I would want no victory, I'd just want you back
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
I don't want no victory, I just want you back
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are?
Are you a shooting star?
Can you say my name?
Darling, can you hear me?
Tell me where's your heart
Now that it stopped beating
It's right here
It's right here
It's right here
It's right here (x9)
