The Field

Every step I take, takes me farther from you
 Every move I make reminds me that I'll always love you
 Since you were a child we've built our lives around you
 Now how am I supposed to live in this world we made without you?
 Sometimes late at night I go to the field
 Is that where you are? Are you a shooting star?
 Can you say my name? Darling, can you hear me?
 Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
 It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
 When you joined the war we were so proud of you
 You seemed so grown up, living life the way we taught you
 Then your first letter came, it sounded nothing like you
 It took all my strength to keep myself from running to you
 Sometimes late at night I go to the field
 Is that where you are? Are you a shooting star?
 Darling, say my name? Darling, can you hear me?
 Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
 It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
 And it will always be until the sun dries the ocean
 And you will always be my little one
 If I was the President, if I was that man
 I would walk out with those kids out across the sand
 If I was the President, if I was that brave
 I would take a shovel then dig each child their grave
 If I was the President and my world turned black
 I would want no victory, I'd just want you back
 I don't want no victory, I just want you back
 I don't want no victory, I just want you back
 I don't want no victory, I just want you back
 I don't want no victory, I just want you back
 And sometimes late at night I go to the field
 Is that where you are? Are you a shooting star?
 Can you say my name? Darling, can you hear me?
 Tell me where's your heart now that it stopped beating?
 It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
 It's right here, it's right here
 It's right here, it's right here
 It's right here, it's right here
 It's right here, it's right here, it's right here
 And you will always be
