There was a time when home was wild
Full of possibilities
And the sky was clear and blue
We were longing to be free
So we shared all our tears and chance
And we left all we knew behind
No more sorrow, no more pain
Just the sweetest evening rain
The dawn is coming closer
The storm will soon be over
The skies are clearing over you and me
The sun was shining, the river widing
When you and I were drifting down the bayou
The fields were burning, the leaves were turning
When sunset drew our eyes beyond the bayou
We'll chase the joys of life together
Hand in hand
Untill the moths that grow in the forest shadows
Cause us hope
Then came a time when the breeze is blue
Far away in the willow trees
And the bright mississipi moon
Cast their shadows on and on
And we found that their roots run deep
And our memories of home have changed
No more sorrow, no more pain
Just the sweetest evening rain
Our broken hearts have healed now
The ghosts are laid to rest now
The passing years have somehow set us free
The sun was shining, the river widing
When you and I were drifting down the bayou
The crows are playing, in a cycle swaying
We're back where we belong down on the bayou
We'll share the joys of life together
Hand in hand
Untill the moths that grow in the forest shadows
Cause us hope
The sun was shining, the river widing
When you and I were drifting down the bayou
The crows are playing, in a cycle swaying
We're back where we belong down on the bayou
We'll share the joys of life together
Haind in hand
Untill the moths that grow in the forest shadows
Cause us hope
