Текст песни My Eldest Son - Trade

So I gotta tell you baby all my love to you
Gotta tell you baby it's all I can do
From the water below and heav'n above
Gotta tell you baby now all my love

Call me out on the things I've done
Tell me now how I let my son
Climb that hill without me there
What good am I I'm just a cold hard stare

The Rain comes down steady and clean
And the canopy opens on this holy green
I held back a little I held back a lot
And a mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks
While a mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks

As the sun comes up I hear my daughter say
Angry as hell that you blew his day
Never again can I stand and sing
What good am I and no gift I bring

Well I held you close with my sorry heart
All I could do was see you at the start
And your arms straight out and your eyes so wide
And my broken heart and the tears I cried

The Rain comes down steady and clean
And the canopy opens on this holy green
I held back a little I held back a lot
And a mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks
A mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks

But you and your grace you always used it well
You reached in again and saved me from my hell
So I gotta tell you baby you my son
You held me up close like a favoured one

The Rain comes down steady and clean
And the canopy opens on this holy green
I held back a little I held back a lot
And a mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks
Yes a mother and a baby and the cradle still rocks

I gotta tell you baby all my love
I gotta tell you baby all my love
I gotta tell you baby all my love to you
I gotta tell you baby all my love to you
