They wouldn′t let me grieve for you
And it turned my heart black
There was no going back from that
But my faith grew stronger
And I found myself closer to God

I don't fear death anymore
Since I laid you to rest
Perhaps that is dangerous but I
Long to lay by your side
In the cold, hard ground

In the cold, hard ground
Is where I belong my love
With you my love
The faith I′ve found will show me the way
So take me, you won't break me
It's too late to save me
So take me to the cold, hard ground

There isn′t a day that goes by
Where I don′t think of you
You make me stronger
And you've given me reason to be

I don′t fear death anymore
It's shackles released
Since I made my peace I am free
Free to lay by your side
In the cold, hard ground

In the cold, hard ground
Is where I belong my love
With you my love
The faith I′ve found has shown me the way
So take me, you won't break me
It′s too late to save me
So take me to the cold, hard ground

So take me, you won't break me
It's too late to save me
So take me to the cold, hard ground
