Lyrics

0:08Once there were green fields kissed by the sun
0:16Once there were valleys where rivers used to run
0:24Once there were blue skies with white clouds high above
0:32Once they were part of an everlasting love
0:39We were the lovers who strolled through green fields
0:55Green fields are gone now
1:00Parched by the sun
1:03Gone from the valleys
1:06Where rivers used to run
1:10Gone with the cold wind
1:14That swept into my heart
1:18Gone with the lovers
1:21Who let their dreams depart
1:25Where are the green fields that we used to roam
1:41I'll never know what made you run away
1:48How can I keep searching when dark clouds hide the day
1:56I only know there's nothing here for me
2:02Nothing in this wide world left for me to see
2:09But I'll keep on waiting until you return
2:17I'll keep on waiting until the day you learn
2:25You can't be happy while your heart's on the roam
2:33You can't be happy until you bring it home
2:40Home to the green fields and me once again
Once there were green fields 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 green fields
Green fields 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 green fields 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 waiting until 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 green fields and me once again
