The Very Earth Lyrics - Edith Frost

You never said a word about my offering 

Once happily i presented for your ogling 

And love it's like a vine that withers over time 

Or wraps around you with a life of its own 

Got to learn to forgive you (for bein' so cold) 

Got to give you time (to be alone) 

Let you prove your heart is colder than mine 

I've come to recognize the ogres fuel the rivalry 

Callously letting me go on regretting you 

And it seems the very earth is on fire 

Poised and ready, just about to ignite 

Down on you 

Got to learn to forgive you (for bein' so cold) 

Got to give you time (to be alone) 

Let you prove your heart is colder than mine 

Let you prove your heart is colder than mine
