lyrics
Brother will bear a heavy burden and late at night he still calls my name.
He wants to throw his arms around me, no one can know my brother’s pain.
Father will bear a heavy burden and late at night he still calls my name.
He wishes somehow he could have saved me, no one can know my father’s pain.
For I’m bound to leave this field of sorrow, my work is done and it’s time to go.
But where I’m headed, you may not follow. There’s still a seed here that you must sow.
Mother will bear a heavy burden and late at night she still calls my name.
She longed to see me grow to a woman, no one can know my mother’s pain.
But my dear, dear family, I’m all around you. I hear you when you call my name.
I’m in the whispered breath of morning, the gentle touch of evening rain.
For I’m bound to leave this field of sorrow, my work is done and it’s time to go.
But where I’m headed, you may not follow. There’s still a seed here that you must sow.
