Lyrics

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
