Groves - Benjamin Francis Leftwich

I know that you're ready to go

But stay a while

And fake a smile

I know that you're ready to go

'Cause there you lay

And stare away

Out the window

The houses through the groves

And to the mountains down the road

I will follow in your footsteps

When I walk away the sadness

In the snow

Don't go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time

I'm home

Don't go

I'll be right beside you

When you rest your

Broken bones

Don't go

I know that you're ready to go

The sky above

The soaring dove

I don't think I'm ready to go

Here alone

You are the stone

That holds me in position

With your calm and steady wisdom

Don't you walk

Away

I will be there in the morning

At the sunrise if you promise

To be strong

Don't go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time

I'm home

Don't go

I'll be right beside you

When you rest your

Broken bones

How could I slow down time

As the waters climb

Had your hand in mine

How can I know new life

As the waters rise

I'll just close my eyes

Don't go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time

I'm home

Don't go

I'll be right beside you

When you rest your broken bones

Don't go

I need you to be waiting for me

Every time

I'm home

Don't go

I'll be right beside you

When you rest your

Broken bones
