Countrywide Soul Lyrics by Jim Cuddy

The Light That Guides You Home

0

[Verse 1]
I was a lonely boy
Out there searching, couldn't find much joy
Too old to fake it, too young to hide it away
I played the master thief
Stealing the lives of the people I'd meet
Fallin' down oh so gracefully
[Pre-Chorus]
There's a price that must be paid
You can't hide out every day
Somebody comes along
They blow your cover all away
[Chorus]
Oh, I lay down in a meadow in the sky
And I held my breath as I fell into your eyes
I love your hair smells sweet like pure Rocky Mountain air
Like the big sky shining on a Winnipeg night
Dust in the air and the Northern Lights
All in your country wide soul
I love your country wide soul
[Verse 2]
You sure walk along slow
That's the only speed I've ever seen you go
You take good care of me as the days go by
Is that the mail train I see
Well I hope it's not carrying any news for me
I just can't see myself on the company line
[Bridge]
There's another season gone and lord I'm feeling strong
Got to find a way to keep this dream dreaming on
[Chorus]
Oh I lay down in a meadow in the sky
And I held my breath as I fell into your eyes
I love your face well it takes me to so many beautiful places
Driving through the night under Prairie stars
Listening to a band in a St. Johns bar
Down by the water on a Halifax shore
Listening to the wind and the ocean roar
Freight train rolling through the Great Divide
The magic in the mushrooms of PEI
All in your country wide soul
