He took that family to the fog by Steeler’s cove Cold hands, not much to say anymore, Doesn’t take too long! He lived in solitude to the north Where wild flower burn Black fall would weigh like lead til the chain set in his hand
Chorus: Morning would come and he would be back home He’d taken his time and taught them all he’d known He left on the farm, he left them on their own Promises burned, he burned them there alone! Promises burned alone!
He’d move from town to town with a love untouched In God he did trust, adored him He’d done what he’d want
Chorus: Morning would come and he would be back home He’d taken his time and taught them all he’d known Left on the farm, he left them on their own Promises burned, he burned them there alone! Promises burned he burned them there alone!
