Lyrics
(Lyrics by John Murray Music by B. Buoncuore)
Long green tresses streaming in the wind
Golden fields where children have been
A rutted gravel road beneath the sky
Where sullen clouds rising majestic lie
(Chorus):
All of us in life have some lost road
That beckons us with a story told
What would have befallen, if followed to the end
And what would I give, to find that road again…
Rows of wild iris on either hand
Where red wings reek a noisy band
And purple hills in the distance loomed
Raising a call to me that was too soon
(Chorus repeat):
I have forgotten where and when I saw
The little road and the voice that called
I can remember only lofty trees
And red maples bowing in the breeze
(Chorus repeat):
Or is better for us to forget….
