lyrics

In the morning, she’s laying by the fireside
In the evening, she’s doing the same
Her mind is filled with such adventure
As she hums her quiet song

It’s been a year since the buckwheat stopped growing
In the place I call “Home”
When I settle and plant myself a garden,
There’ll be buckwheat there to sow.

When we were young, we’d run through the meadows.
The leaves would stick to our hair and in our clothes.
But now only in a few old dusty pockets,
can a wrinkled leaf be found.

It’s been a year since the buckwheat stopped growing
In the place I call “Home”
When I settle and plant myself a garden,
There’ll be buckwheat there to sow.

Did you know the day you stole from me,
The day your crime went through-
Did you know that when you’d take from me-
Did you know you’d take her too?

This time next year, the buckwheat will be growing
When I find myself a home.
When I settle and plant myself a garden,
There’ll be buckwheat there to sow.
