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
Chorus:
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.
Chorus
Oooh's
i keep coming back throughout the years :) thank you
I liked this when it was uploaded 11 years ago. I thought it was such a warm soothing song. I'm back here because I was scrolling through my old liked videos, and this performance had me in tears -- 11 more years of life means this connects with a deep sense of mourning and loss within me.
It's been about 6 years since I stumbled upon this tune needles to say I always come back. Thanks guys :)
this made me cry. simply beautiful.
"but you're roots are tying you down
and i know, cause i'm tied down too"
favorite part.
13 years and still a song I come back to so I can cry. Miss my brother so much. Thanks ana
My best friend shot himself about a month ago, and this is the most beautiful thing I've heard since it happened. Thank you.
thank you infinitely for putting this back up
i am obsessed with this all week i've just been having cravings to come back and listen to it.
I just found you on TH-cam, and I have to say I love your original songs and covers. This song also touched the cores of my heart.
Still listening to this song 11 years later. Thanks for bringing it back.
This girl cried like a lost child. Much love, ladies.
I can't remember how many times I've listened to this song now. It's amazing!
there are no words that can describe how this song makes me feel. thank you so much. really.
so beautiful. so so beautiful.
Wow. A really moving song. I think anyone who has lost a loved one can empathize and relate to those lyrics.
Beautifully written.
Great to hear some of your own songs.
I listened to this a few monthes ago and it gets stuck in my head every now and then, I just had to hear it again
Even after finding this song 3 years ago I still come back to listen to it often! I absolutely love it :)

"don't grow up, grow down"

still waiting on that good copy, and then for it to go on iTunes, this song deserves to make millions :)
Love it! Reminds me of the Sundays. Your voices make me want to dream kind. I wished I could play a bit of lead beside you ladies. Although just a humm from either of you puts my guitar on its stand. Absolutely gracefull. thank you.
I cried like a baby reading the lyrics and listen to this... Really!
You two have a rent-free spot in my mind forever! This has been on various playlists since upload(or pretty darn near) and I love listening every time. I can't count the number of times I find myself humming a bit of this tune.
I love that you also show you having fun with your friend!
