Lyrics
I was born in a storm of opportunity
I entered the world during a challenging yet promising period.
And held on tight in line with all the other seeds
I clung to life alongside other individuals with potential.
But how well can I speak when I’m tongue-tied to a dream
I struggle to express myself when bound by an elusive aspiration.
Well enough to give her a simple melody
Nevertheless, I can convey my emotions through a simple melody.
Honey, I’ve been waiting a long long time
I have been patiently awaiting your return for a significant duration.
For you to come home and tell me everything’s alright
I yearn for reassurance that everything is fine.
I’ve spent so many nights under this lonely little light
I have spent numerous nights alone under a dim light.
Where the prairies meet the hills as they roll on by
My solitude is where open landscapes meet rising hills.
Her northern eyes were greener in her younger years
Her eyes, once vivid green, have faded with time.
Like the first rain of spring falling on my ears
Her gaze is reminiscent of the refreshing first rain of spring.
Now it pours for weeks of days until we’re drowning in her tears
Now, tears flow continuously, overwhelming us.
And the water breaks right through her southern heart as she disappears
Her emotional pain penetrates deeply as she vanishes.
Have you seen the mountains and how they hold
Observing the enduring strength of mountains and their relationship with the sky.
The sky with their time-weathered faces of snow
The mountains bear witness to experiences beyond our understanding.
I guess they’ve seen more than we’ll ever really know
They have witnessed more than we can comprehend.
I just hope they’re here long enough to watch us grow old
I hope they endure to witness our aging process.
If I could cast a spell I would make her stay
If I had magical abilities, I would make her presence permanent.
Strong enough to take a lot of hell
I wish she possessed the strength to endure hardships.
And I swore I would never let things come to this
I promised myself I wouldn't let things reach this point.
But here I am fighting to hold it all in
Yet, I find myself struggling to contain everything.
The familiar feeling of my head in my hands
The familiar feeling of despair consumes me, head in my hands.
I was born to love and I’ll love her ’til I’m gone with the wind
I was born to love, and my love will persist until I'm carried away like the wind.
Honey, I’ve been waiting a long long time
I've been anticipating your return for a prolonged period.
For you to come home and tell me everything’s alright
I long to hear that everything is well.
I’ve spent so many nights under this lonely little light
Many nights have passed alone under a dim light.
Where the prairies meet the hills as they roll on by
Where the vast plains meet the hills, continuing their timeless journey.
