lyrics

Someday again I’ll taste that prairie spice,
Dribble of love coming from heaven thrice,
Until that day I’m on this dusty old road,
Lost in the hills scratching for gold,

I’ve been a fool in the night,
I’ve been a fool in the day,
I’ve been a class A old fool
In the simplest of ways,
Captured by gold on the emptiest hill,
With a pan full of sand I be catching a …chill,

Someday again I’ll be whistling a tune,
As light as a breezy feather floating to you,
I’ll take a chance on the wind and put up a kite,
At the top of the hill with the shimmery lights,

It’s been the cruelest of nights,
It’s been the cruelest of days,
And all I really want is to run run,
Captured by love on the crest of the wave,
With a heart full of blood and it run runs,

Take my hand, lead me through this place
Take my hand, lead me through this place
Take my hand, lead me through this place
Take my hand, Lordy Lord, lead me through this place,

Someday again I’ll taste that prairie wind,
Dribble of love coming from heaven within,
Until that day I’m on this dusty old street,
Lost in the hills scratching my feet,

I’ve been a fool in the night,
I’ve been a fool in the day,
I’ve been a class A old fool
In the simplest of ways,
Captured by love on the crest of the wave,
With a heart full of blood,
And I’m hoping for change,

Take my hand, lead me through this place
Take my hand, lead me through this place
Here I am, lead me through this place
Here I am, Lord lead me through this place,
