lyrics

Somewhere in the country
By the rolling planes
A book I took
And a fishing hook
Lay lonesome in a lake I have made

I remember on Sundays
The air so thin and so cold
And I'd stroll down slow
And the morning glow
Would hold up my heavy old soul

When all the days are fading
Into another old year
I will go back to the times that I'm keeping
In the bottom of this pot of beer

Far from all of the wildlands
Where innocence cannot be framed
No field of fires
Or foolish desires
Or issues with what I have claimed

I did all that I could do
But not enough to
Win over your heart
So you stood
To drown all of my good
My pride and my manhood
You ripped it apart

Now my life is a wonder
How I stand I do not know
But morning comes
And fills my lungs
It ain't my time now to go
