Love and Dirt
Wendy DuMond and Tom Franz
V1
Aristotle he had his ethics
Plato had forms and laws
Socrates drank hemlock
Because we were so flawed
V2
I wonder why I hang around here
When loving you is so much work
Just stick me in the ground, dear
Between love and dirt
Chorus 1
Between love and dirt
Between your heart and mine
Somebody got hurt
Someone crossed the line
Somebody stopped moving
And someone ran ahead
Someone lives in grace
The other wishes he was dead
V3
The Preacher talks about salvation
Rebirth death and things
But he never thought to mention
What lies between
V4
Like when you hurt but you aina019t crying
Cause youa019re trying to convert
In your mind know youa019re lying
Between love and dirt
Chorus 2
Between love and dirt
Between your soul and mine
Therea019s a long hot desert
Therea019s a sharp decline
Someone stopped moving
And someone ran ahead
Now someone moves
With grace among the living
But the other only wishes
He was dead
Bridge
You know Ia019d love a destination
But a journey is all Ia019ve ever seen
And Ia019ve got this sense of resignation
That Ia019ll end up right between
