Green Prairies
Embracing Freedom: A Tale of Love and Dreams
Lyrics
My brother says I told you so
Expression of knowing or predicting an outcome, possibly with a touch of warning or skepticism.
When the cat bites me and she don't let go
Metaphorical reference to a challenging situation, where persistence is required.
He knows more than all of us know
Acknowledging the brother's wisdom or insight surpassing that of others.
Or he's wise enough to stay quiet when voices rise
Recognition of the brother's wisdom in choosing silence during conflicts.
Eat his dinner and avert his eyes
Describing a scenario of maintaining a low profile during tense moments.
Hope one day he don't compromise
Expressing hope that the brother won't compromise his values or principles.
There's a feature on a silver screen
Reference to the brother's life being portrayed in a cinematic manner on a silver screen.
Where his story's told and his name is seen
Expressing a desire for freedom associated with open landscapes and quieted conflicts.
I want freedom ringing out
Expressing a longing for freedom, symbolized by green prairies, and silenced disagreements.
For green prairies and quieted mouths
Expressing the desire for a carefree and peaceful existence.
I'll make my living doing what I like
Declaration of choosing a livelihood aligned with personal preferences and passions.
When I meet somebody I won't think twice
Commitment to making decisions without hesitation when meeting someone special.
Picks me flowers and holds me tight
Imagery of affection and tenderness in a romantic relationship.
We'll marry under rows of trees
Vision of a future marriage under the beauty of nature.
My brother and my mother and my father see
Inclusion of family in the imagined wedding scene, emphasizing shared joy.
Laughter in our shouts and screams
Anticipation of laughter and joy in the future relationship.
We'll buy a small house
Imagined future plans of purchasing a small house.
With a big yard
Describing the desired property with a big yard, symbolizing space and abundance.
Where I care for those I love
Expressing a commitment to caring for loved ones in the envisioned home.
Nothing's too hard
Confidence in handling challenges, suggesting a resilient attitude.
I want freedom ringing out
Reiteration of the desire for freedom, associated with green prairies and peaceful resolutions.
For green prairies and quieted mouths
Renewed emphasis on the longing for open landscapes and harmony.
We'll buy a small house
Repetition of the vision of buying a small house with a big yard.
With a big yard
Reiteration of the desire to care for loved ones in the envisioned home.
Where I care for those I love
Restating the confidence in handling challenges within the family setting.
Nothing's too hard
Reiteration that nothing is too difficult when caring for loved ones.
There's a feature on a silver screen
