Title track from my new cd-single On The Field/Dignity
Author's edition - released in December 2012

lyrics

ON THE FIELD
(c) Ville-Veikko Markkanen

I 'm standing on the field
my back against the wind
summer`s dead and gone
and the wind is in the North

I 'm watching how the rain
is whipping golden grain
summer`s passed away fog`s rising on the bay...


Naked, all alone
I`m standing on the field
without a flame in soul
within a circle cold

accross the field I walk
and by the brook I stay
let me rest a while
I beg you and I pray

Let me stay...


My eyes, turn to red I have cried for heaven sent
Now let me see just one more dawn by the sea
I will miss me...


Rise, one more time
Rise so high up to the sky
Shine - for me-shine
You are mine - you`re only mine...

Rise, so proud and free
You know how to fly and let me see
Shine - for me shine
You are mine - this time you`re mine...
