Greenfields          Terry Gilkyson, Rich Dehr and Frank Miller

 

Once there were greenfields kissed by the sun, once there were valleys where rivers use to run,

once there were blue sky with white clouds high above, once there were part of an everlasting love.

We were the lovers who strolled through green fields.

 

Greenfields are gone now parched by the sun, gone from the valleys were rivers use to run,

gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart, gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart.

Where are the greenfields that we use to roam?

 

I’ll never know what makes 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 ‘til 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 greenfields and me once again.
