All those rolling little hills And ramshackeled towns And green green rocky roads Have got my head all turned around Oh I see them in my mind When I think of you I can see the countryside That we two were just passing through Your folks lived down by the lake I'd see them for your sake But when you turned away, they all began to fade Like ghosts in the air Like they were never there They all faded away I held you tight in my arms But then I heard you cry I felt my world begin to spin Our love was new why did it die Down the valley I see The country of my soul It's a land both green and young Where the blue waters gently flow Your folks lived down by the lake I'd see them for your sake But when you turned away, they all began to fade Like ghosts in the air Like they were never there They all faded away
