Lyrics:
(v1)
Oh, lay me down
Let the earth my soul surround
Where all I can see
Is the land in front of me
Where the red azalea grows
I’m alone in my repose
Paradise, though slowly it grows
It has life beyond our own
(chorus)
I’ve made my life here
I think I’m happy here
Down where the grass grows
Away from all my fears
Among the willows
Where my sweet peace takes hold
Here in the hollows
A place that I call home
(v2)
There’s wisdom, you know
In the way the water flows
Softly, it winds
Giving life to all it finds
Bringing green to all of the trees
Bearing fruit for you and me
And all the while, finding its way
In the turbulent decay
(repeat chorus)
I’ve made my life here
I think I’m happy here
Down where the grass grows
Away from all my fears
Among the willows
Where my sweet peace takes hold
Here in the hollows
A place that I call home
(guitar solo)
(v3)
All the mountains high
The clouds across the sky
The grand horizon beckons me
The rain comes falling down
Upon the thirsty ground
Wash away my frailty
The wind blows through my mane
It courses though my veins
Awakens me to worlds unseen
The trees forever grow
The creatures come and go
All behold their majesty
The forest sets me free
The animal in me
All my instincts brought me here
