slept in the fields
if you must sing do it quietly
for i am dreaming another song to the fore
there is a rich rhythm encircling me and i don't
want to drop the beat     sing quietly for i am afraid
that i will forget my song when i awake
but something tells me
that the rest of my life is this song       and we can both
sing it together     quietly     harmoniously
out in the fields
