Homestead Blues Lyrics by Anne Kirkpatrick

Down Home

0

[Verse 1]
\nGazing from my window out on the rolling plains
\nBut the sight of cattle grazing doesn’t ease the aching pain
\nThe homestead stirs with memories
\nOf happy days we knew
\nBut things that once brought gladness [?] raised the thought of you
\nThe lonely blue of evening settles down on hill and tree
\nAnd cattle [?]ing by the stream only served to torture me
\nThe yesterdays we spent come crowding to the [?]
\nAnd I’d give all my tomorrows
\nTo have you back once morе
\nI’d give all my tomorrows
\nTo have you back once morе
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nThose days have gone forever
\nYou’ve gone and left it all
\nTo try to and find a new life
\nLured by the city’s call
\nBut I wonder if those city lights will bring you peace of mind
\nTo take the place of the loving heart and life you left behind
\nIn the evenings at the homestead there’s nothing left to do
\nBut sit alone alone in solitude and dream my dreams of you
\nIf you should tire of city lights my dreams are not in vain
\nThe blues will leave the homestead when you come back home again
\nYes, the blues will leave the homestead when you come back home again\n\n
