Home In The Country
Bryan Poirier, Manitou Passage Music, ASCAP ©2006
A grass moon is waxing as I drive along this road
Imitating sunlight, it shines the path I hold
Father always told me, “Slow up and settle down.”
Mother’s voice is saying, “Get your feet back on the ground.”
Cause there comes a time when time has passed you by
And all that will be left is wonderin’ why
Chorus
Find you a Home in the Country
Let the morning rain fall on the sill
Stars are only brighter if you’re in heaven
You won’t see your freedom until
You find you a Home in the Country
Life was always easy with no direction known
Love was taken freely as I reaped the seeds I’d sown
But, now my dirty laundry has nowhere to go
It’s time to wash my dishes and clean off my stove
And I’ll take the wife I never said I would
And I’ll love her like I never thought I could
And I’ll….
Chorus
Bridge
I always wonder too far
I always seem to push too hard
But love has slowed me down
And I’ll take a look around
And I’ll….
Chorus Twice
