Peterborough County is a village in a valley May have a farm at the top of the hill You can have your city streets, your backyards and your alleys Me I have these green fields, and I always will Im married out of high school, to a girl I knew forever We settled in together, and three children came The life that we'd been living was forgive and be forgiven But whenever I saw sunshine, she could only see grey Left me standing in the cornfields, the dry land all around me And I felt myself sinking, like the setting sun The sky was like an ocean, pouring down around me I used to be so proud, now its all undone So I kept on working my land, I held on with both hands And I watched the seasons turning, in the sky above I worked beside my father, we bent our backs together And I wonder could I ever find someone to love When I was good and ready, when I stood up strong and steady Love came with a letters in the morning mail And I knew that I had found her, when I put my arms around her When I see her in the morning, how that sun rises Leaves me standing in the cornfields, the dry land all around me And I feel myself rising, like the morning sun And the sky is like an ocean, white blue rolling And I know that in my own heart, shes the only one
