John Clare's Dream
(Claudia Scott, Shaun Belcher)

I've been walking these fields since the sun came up
Don't know who I am, I am not gonna give up
Well the corn is ripe, and it's about to fall
There's no need to fight anymore

Walk with me, walk with me
In John Clare's dream
Walk with me, walk with me
In John Clare's Dream

Sky so blue, trees so green
I watch the fish jumping in a clear blue stream
I've been walking these fields since the sun came up
I don't know which way I'm going in this world I love

Walk with me, walk with me
In John Clare's dream
Walk with me, walk with me
In John Clare's dream

The nitrates are drifting, the pesticide is leaking
They're spraying from the air, I feel I am choking
Somewhere deep in the sap, somewhere on these leaves
I can hear you breathing hard, can hear you scream

Our wells are poisoned, the roots are bare
There's blood on the landing stage, how did it get there
The sleet is biting now through the old beech trees
We don't know if we're headed down a one-way street

Walk with me, walk with me
In John Clare's dream
Walk with me to the edge of this stream
In John Clare's dream
Walk with me to the edge of the world...
