Ever Mine - feat. Alison Krauss

My dearest darlin' I miss you more than words can tell I hope the gardens growin tall You're in good spirits and good health We've traveled far now with a long way to go still I know not yet when I'll return or if I ever will Each day grows colder Filled with powder, smoke, and steel I worry before it's over, I've forgotten how to feel I keep your picture in the pocket of my coat I sometimes find when I'm alone it's my last bit of hope Amidst the grips of these troubled times Way back to you I always find You're the wind that whispers through the pines Bloom in the rows, green on them vines Until we meet again my love sincerely signed I'm ever yours, you're ever mine Some of these boys aren't much older than our own They fight like men and then get cut down before they're grown This is my prayer that our daughter and our sons Wrap their arms around each other And never around a gun Amidst the grips of these troubled times Way back to you I always find You're the wind that whispers through the pines Bloom in the rows green on them vines Until we meet again my love sincerely signed I'm ever yours, you're ever mine If you should hear it's come my time Way back to you I always find I'll be the wind that whisper through the pines Pitch in the black, star in the shine We'll meet again on the other side I'm ever yours, you're ever mine
