Is as old as blood can be
 
Is as old as blood can be
 
As old as blood can be

Saying I am in the forest, in the city and the field
 
I am in the bounty come on know me as I yield
 
I am in the falcon, in the otter and the stoat
 
I am in the turtle dove with nowhere left to go
 
And in the moment of blind madness when he's pushing her away
 
I am in the lover and in the ear who hears her say
 
Can we begin again, oh baby it's me again
 
I know you are so different to me, but I love you just the same
 
I love you just the same
 
 
[Bridge 2]
 
I love you just the same

Were warm and you were gentle, you were modest you were kind
(I love you just the same)
 
A mother, wife and gran you were a woman of your time
(I love you just the same)
 
Mary young as we may be you know, the blood in you and me
(I love you just the same)
 
Is as old as blood can be
 
As old as blood can be
(I love you just the same)
 
She says I am in the living I am in the dying too
(I love you just the same)
 
I am in the stillness can you see me as I move
(I love you just the same)
 
I am in the hawthorn, in the apple and the beech
(I love you just the same)
 
I am in the mayhem, in the medicine of speech
(I love you just the same)
 
In the moment of blind madness when he's pushing her away
(I love you just the same)
 
I am in the lover and in the ear who hears her say
 
Can we begin again, oh baby it's me again
 
I know you are so different to me, but I love you just the same
 
I love you just the same
 
I love you just the same
 
I love you just the same
 
I love you just the same
