Green Fields

Green Fields


Once there were green fields
kissed by the sun Once there were valleys
where rivers used to run Once there was
blue sky with white clouds
high above Once they were part of
an everlasting love We were the lovers
who stoled 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
But 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
