Anna Scouten



This isn't a very good recording, I'll put up a better one of us playing at bluegrass camp with other instruments. This is an original song me and my friend Madison wrote last year after her dad passed away. We are playing on my roof because it was a beautiful day outside. The first verse is Madison, the second is for her little brother, and the third is both. I hope that makes sense and I hope you enjoy. The lyrics are:

Dig me deep in the ground
'Cause I want to be close to you
You sleep like you'll never wake up
And I know, cause I'm dreaming too

Dig you deep in the ground
'Cause you want to grow tall like we do
But you're roots are tying you down
And I know, cause I'm tied down too

When you have two feet on the ground
Don't grow up, grow down
Even when I sleep,
I'm listening to my heartbeat
To tell me I'm alive

I dug you out of the ground
'Cause apart of me died, when you died too
And you said time is all that we have
And I know, cause it's true.
