from Home Again
|
..............................................
|
|
When you pick a sprig of balsam pine,
|
On your hike along the mountain view,
|
You can wrap the scent in corduroy,
|
And bring the mountain home with you.
|
|
When you sit beside the ocean's edge
|
And dream of what might come to be,
|
Your fingers keep the taste of salt,
|
From the castles made beside the sea.
|
|
I'm lonely at work now,
|
My hand holds my chin.
|
And my mischievous fingers remind me,
|
And cover my grin.
|
|
The scent takes me dreaming,
|
To wildberry pie,
|
And the wind hits my sails
|
With the sound of your trembling sigh.
|
|
When we work to make a berry pie,
|
lips can tell where we have been,
|
Out picking huckleberries wild,
|
to bring the harvest home again.
|
|
And on the way we sang a tune,
|
what I said is what I meant,
|
Our love is like a red, red rose--
|
it leaves a certain subtle scent.
|
|
I'm lonely at work now.
|
My hand holds my chin,
|
And my mischievous fingers remind me and cover my grin
|
|
The scent takes me dreaming,
|
of wildberry pie,
|
And the wind hits my sails with the sound of your trembling sigh.
|
And the wind hits my sails with the sound of your trembling sigh.
