alexa rose - lilacs lyrics
these winding roads sing out like old hymns
and i’ve no gift for harmony
still every turn is in my fingers
the words are coming back to me
i’ve heard it told my mother’s mother
walked barefoot here for routine fills
a pint of milk, a pail of water
that same magenta on the hills
she sends me lilacs in the spring of the year
it’s all long gone and it’s all right here
i used to think we owned this mountain
it only blinks an eye at us
beneath these wheels just miles of blacktop
whеre heavy horse kickеd up dust
when someone else graces our table
and when our blood runs river cold
our love lives on in march and april
the seeds we planted still unfold
i’ll send you lilacs in the spring of the year
it’s all long and it’s all right here
well that old house has turned to ashes
and all the fields are overgrown
along the fence, a brightness clashes
with all the dark this holler’s known
it seems to say “i know your story
the ones before, and those ahead”
how many souls have come before me
to place her flowers by the bed?
how sweet those whispers of the past in my ear
they’re all long gone and they’re all right here
they’re all long gone and they’re all right here
