Ambling Toward the Unknown 8

Lyrics > Ambling Toward the Unknown 8

TO A DISTANT WORLD

I
YOU’RE MY COUNTRY GIRL
YOU KEEP ME TETHERED TO A DISTANT WORLD
A LAND OF DREAMS SO BRIGHT AND NEW
I WISH I COULD LIVE THERE WITH YOU

CHORUS
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR A LONG TIME
SEARCHING HIGH AND LOW FOR THIS DREAM OF MINE
I’VE BLOWN AROUND JUST LIKE A FLAG UNFURLED
IN A TRIBUTE TO THAT COUNTRY GIRL

II
CHOPPING WOOD FOR A WINTER STORM
TEACH YOUR CHILDREN ABOUT THE GREAT OUTDOORS
YOU’VE NEVER LEFT ME ALL ALONE BUT YET
I NEED TO LIVE A LIFE WITH NO REGRET

III
GENERATIONS HAVE WALKED THIS LAND
BREATHED THE AIR AND TURNED ROCK TO SAND
LOOKED TO THE SKY FOR A GREENER PATCH
PRAYED TO THE LORD FOR A PERFECT MATCH

CHORUS

IV
YOU’RE MY COUNTRY GIRL
YOU KEEP ME TETHERED TO A DISTANT WORLD
A LAND OF DREAMS SO BRIGHT AND NEW
I WISH I COULD LIVE THERE WITH YOU
