Once there were green fields kissed by the sun
|
Once there were valleys where rivers used to run
|
Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above
|
Once they were part of an everlasting love
|
We were the lovers who strolled through green fields
|
|
Green fields are gone now, parched by the sun
|
Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run
|
Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart
|
Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart
|
Where are the green fields that we used to roam
|
|
I'll never know what made you run away
|
How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day
|
I only know there's nothing here for me
|
Nothing in this wide world, left for me to see
|
|
Still I'll keep on waiting until you return
|
I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn
|
You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam
|
You can't be happy until you bring it home
|
Home to the green fields and me once again
|
