[Verse 1]

Well I try to close my eyes

Clear my mind

Just listen to the wildflowers grow

Such whispers on the breeze

It don't come easy now

Over all this noise

Spent my youth among the pine

They used to sing a tune so fine

And the wind moved like an echo

Carryin' their voices

[Verse 2]

And I saw it in a dream

Monuments to trees

As the air we breathe turned our lungs to dust

And the redwoods so tall

And all their awe

Began to rust

With no bend and sway at all

That ancient dance is lost

And the wind moved like an echo

With a sigh in every gust

[Verse 3]

Well some day I hope to find

That land of honey wine

Where the coffee grows on the white oak trees

And those sugar coated mountains

In the spring begin to melt into

Sweetest streams

Where each night the starlight and the sea

Together form eternity

And the wind moves like an echo

As the world drops off to sleep
