Joan Lyrics by My Good Man William

The Far Country

2018

Verse 1
Slept on the porch when my love fell short
I wept for my mothers pearls
Carried the weight of the wind and the rain
Spoke life to the breathless girl
When she comes back she has a tale to tell
Verse 2
Walked on the cliff and his feet thought to slip
Only steadied by the stable boy
He wanted it all before life passed him by
Hid his shame from his fathers eye
But when he comes back his fathers waiting outside
Chorus 1
Love is a landslide, leaves you nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Love is a landslide
Love is a landslide, leaves you nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Love is a landslide
Verse 3
Joan passed away in autumns wake
As her family stood around
I wish I could find the words to say
As we lay her back to the ground
She won’t come back, she won’t hear me cry
Chorus 2/Outro
And I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose you, lose you
I don’t want to lose, and I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose you, lose you
I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose you, lose you
I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose, I don’t want to lose, lose you
