40 Acres – Caedmon’s Call – letras

40 AcresCall Caedmon’sOut on these Texas plains you can see for a million livesAnd there’s a thousand exits between here and the state lineAbout the last time that I saw youYou said call me Pandora, call me a foolAnd I’m thinking this view it could do you some goodSo drop these scales and take a lookThere’s forty acres and redemption to be foundJust along the wayThere is a place where no plow blade has ever turned the groundAnd you will turn it over, ’cause out here hope remains’Cause out here hope remains…Out here the Texas sky is as big as the seaAnd your alone in your room like an island floating freeYour spirit’s hanging in a bottle out on a treeYou say that you’re the black sheep, I say you’re still familySo throw that bottle to the wavesThey’ll bring you in to me and the shore you will seeOut here the Texas rain is the hardest I’ve ever seenIt’ll wash your house away, but it’ll also make you cleanNow these rocks they are crying tooAnd this whole land is calling out for youby Zé Mingau
