Lyrics
0:08Once there were greenfields
0:12Kissed by the sun
0:15Once there were valleys
0:19Where rivers used to run
0:23Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above
0:31Once they were part of an everlasting love
0:38We were the lovers who strolled through greenfields
0:53Greenfields are gone now
0:58Parched by the sun
1:01Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run
1:08Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart
1:16Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart
1:23Where are the greenfields that we used to roam
1:39I'll never know what made you run away
1:45How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day
1:53I only know there's nothing here for me
1:59Nothing in this wide world left for me to see
2:06But I'll keep on waitin' 'til you return
2:14I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn
2:22You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam
2:29You can't be happy until you bring it home
2:36Home to the greenfields and me once again
Once there were greenfields Kissed by the sun Once there were valleys Where rivers used to run Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above Once they were part of an everlasting love We were the lovers who strolled through greenfields Greenfields are gone now Parched by the sun Gone from the valleys where rivers used to run Gone with the cold wind that swept into my heart Gone with the lovers who let their dreams depart Where are the greenfields that we used to roam I'll never know what made you run away How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day I only know there's nothing here for me Nothing in this wide world left for me to see But I'll keep on waitin' 'til you return I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam You can't be happy until you bring it home Home to the greenfields and me once again
