Intro Verse The wind blew from the fenland 'cross the big November sky wind chimes sang uncertainly all the camp was quiet I look hard to the horizon maybe soon they would come with their suits and their papers to move my people on I saw a skylark rising from an empty field another home we could have made another home we have to leave I'm tired of their permissions to use what should be free tired of heavy voices telling me what I should be Chorus if I fall bury me standing if I fall won't you bury me deep? I will not fade I will not sleep Instrumental Verse the leaves of life are driven ever since this world began and the leaves of life have blown me round more than any woman can what I can't bear to remember is what I can't bear to forget the road goes on forever our time's not over yet Chorus if I fall bury me standing if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade I will not sleep Instrumental Chorus if I fall bury me standing if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade I will not sleep if I fall bury me standing if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade I will not sleep
