lyrics

See the mist rise above the morning meadow
Like the ghost of dreams in this farm town
Peer at the wispy clouds in the beaming blue sky
And the horses grazing in the grass

Through family houses and white stables
To a time when I was young and able
Hear birds chirping high above the trees
And the dogs barking at dawn

Take me back to picket fences and open fields
Country livin' a simpler time
Somethin' real

Shimmering afternoon
Fresh peaches in the orchard
Her smiling face beckoning
To a lake in the heat of the Sun

Take me back to picket fences and open fields
Country livin' a simpler time
Somethin' real

And in the twilight at last days glow
Smell the flowers in the fragrant breeze
Heavens layered orange and violet
Above a shadowed plane

Faint stars light a sapphire curtain
The world rests quietly in it's slumber
Enchanted mystery in the evening air
A hint of fantasy as I drift to dreams


Take me back to picket fences and open fields
Country livin' a simpler time
Somethin' real

Take me back to picket fences and open fields
I'm livin' a life that's no longer me, I gotta' get back
To the country...
