Old Man and the Land

Lyrics:

• there came a time for the old man
• when a place of beauty, a lay of land
• spoke out to him, said understand,
• you should rest now,
• i’m an open hand
• and the man said yes!


• i’d like the days here
• i’d like the nights here
• here I will settle me down
• i’ll spend my days here
• the rest of my days here
• here I will watch the world go round


• there came a time for the old man
• when a place of beauty, a lay of land
• spoke out to him like a long lost friend
• said stay with me now until the end
• the man said yes!


• I’d like the summers here
• i’d like the winters
• here I will settle me down
• i’ll spend my days here
• rest of my days here
• here I will watch
• the world go round


• and so they lived
• the man and the land
• they lived as one
• until the end
• and the man sang out


• I like the days here
• I like the nights here
• oh! how the world spins around
• I like the summers here
• I like the winters here
• here I will sleep in the ground
• here I will sleep in the ground
• here I will sleep in the ground
