lyrics

Please come back to the prairie where the spirits of the buffalo roam free, the hills of southwest Iowa keep whispering to me. When will you dance upon the tracks of the long made railroad beds, that once united our countryside but have long been left for dead? But what good could I do? I’ve been gone for so long. Just offer up this simple song and open up your arms.

“From the earth to the sky. Love will guide us if we try. And teach our fragile hearts to sing again. Take me in with arms held wide and hold me close tonight. Shine the light that leads us safely home.”

Its ok to feel sad its ok to get mad. Your feeling what it is to be alive. Your discovering your balance and the joys that are to be found. Find faith in your self and trust your neighbor. We’ve got all the time we need, and we've all got something to give. So share this simple song and open your arms.

“From the earth to the sky. Love will guide us if we try. And teach our mighty hearts to sing as one. Take me in with arms held wide and hold me close tonight. Shine the light that leads us safely home.”
