I Left The Grounds

Innocence Mission

Compositor: Karen Peris

I have turned around
I'm walking back to join the choir
Leaves are flying through the sky.

There's a hidden life,
there's a life that no one knows,
there are things that can't be told.

And Sister Michael didn't know.
I've never said a word to her.
It's not her fault,
but it was getting hard enough
to be around.
I left the grounds
