The Little Green Valley
Yearning for the Little Green Valley
Lyrics
I see a candlelight down in the little green valley
I perceive a candlelight in the little green valley
Where Morning Glory vines are twining around my door
Where Morning Glory vines are entwining around my door
Oh, how I wish I was there again down in the little green valley
Expressing a strong desire to be back in the little green valley
For then my homesick heart will trouble me no more
Hoping that returning to the valley will end the pain of homesickness
There's only one thing ever brings me consolation
Identifying the only source of solace
And that's the dream that I'll be going back someday
Dreaming of a future return to the little green valley
And every night down upon my knees
Engaging in nightly prayers on knees
I pray the Lord to please take me
Pleading with the Lord to take the speaker back to the valley
Back to that little old green valley far away
Desiring a return to the distant green valley
I see a candlelight down in the little green valley
Observing the presence of candlelight again
Where Morning Glory vines are twining around my door
Mentioning the Morning Glory vines surrounding the door
Oh, how I wish I was there again down in the little green valley
Expressing a strong desire to be back in the little green valley
For then my homesick heart will trouble me no more
Hoping that returning to the valley will end the pain of homesickness
There's only one thing ever brings me consolation
Identifying the only source of solace
And that's the dream that I'll be going back someday
Dreaming of a future return to the little green valley
And every night down upon my knees
Engaging in nightly prayers on knees
I pray the Lord to please take me
Pleading with the Lord to take the speaker back to the valley
Back to that little old green valley far away
Desiring a return to the distant green valley
