Song Description

On the farm thinking about a loved one who is off to war.

Lyrics

Godsend I know that it's a godsend Each minute of April sun With a few more weeks of working And the seeding will be done It's the start of a new year Running this farm alone I'm just thinking of the harvest And when you're coming back Chorus: Cause, I've got land to till I've got strength and will May the sky bless the seeds With the water May the rain fall down on our sacred ground And may godsend you home to me You saw it as a godsend Your chance to run away On the weekends to play solider Black boots and a green beret And I know it made you nervous So I hope it didn't show On the day they drew your number And they said you had to go Chorus: Now, I've got land to till I've got strength and will I've got someone that Won't be forgotten May the the stars align For the harvest time And may godsend you home to me Bridge: I have to give my self a minute Of wanting what I just can't have To get me through the mornings When I'm out on the land Chorus: Now, I've got land to till I've got strength and will I've got dreams that Won't be forsaken How my heart will yearn For your safe return May godsend you home to me May godsend you home to me May godsend you home to me © 2003 John Dowling ----------------
