Barns and things
Across the river, through the trees
There's a barn that sits in these
Rolling fields of golden grain
That sway in spite of wind and rain
Gentle scene that soothes my soul
Whispers warmth when life is cold
Faded red on timbers worn
It's the stories I adore
Farmers who have plowed the fields
Weathered hands to bring the yields
Sustaining life another year
Through the seasons, through the fear
Of heat and winter, cold and storm
Tending cattle, wheat and corn
Grandpas, fathers and their sons
Tending til each setting sun
Sinks low behind that aging barn
The center of its simple farm
That shelters bags and bales and hay
And animals that moo and bray
An era quickly passing by
Holding richness deep inside
Its heritage and all that's dear
Precious memories, treasured years

"Every song that I write comes from my own personal experience. i believe the role of an artist is to interpret reality through a system of beliefs and a long-term seeking of truth, in your own life and in the world at large." Dan Folgelberg
