From the recording Under the Iowa Sky

Lyrics

<p>Under The Iowa Sky 1. There's a gentle breeze, across the golden fields On this late summer&rsquo;s day And the old boys are playing cards Down at Hazel&rsquo;s Caf&eacute; (Pre-chorus): I walk past a row of white picket fences This moment in time fillin&rsquo; my senses Oh, oh oh oh, like it was yesterday (Chorus): Oh oh oh, time&rsquo;s been slippin&rsquo; by away from me From school pep rallies and pecan pie To pop star wannabe But I can still hear, when I close my eyes That soothing cricket lullaby Under the Iowa sky 2. Starstruck at sixteen, had to get away From that Midwestern town So I placed my bets, and packed my bags Sure got myself around My heart&rsquo;s been broken, blow by blow I&rsquo;ve prayed without faith, and paid without dough Oh, each time seemed like I was homeward bound (Chorus): Oh oh oh, time&rsquo;s been slippin&rsquo; by away from me From school pep rallies and pecan pie To pop star wannabe But I can still hear, when I close my eyes That soothing cricket lullaby Under the Iowa sky (Bridge): Some memories will give you sleepless nights Then others keep you strong and let you put up a good fight (Chorus 2): Oh oh oh, time, time&rsquo;s been slippin&rsquo; away from me I&rsquo;m a country girl whose city life is right now what she needs Though I can still hear, when I close my eyes Yeah, I can still hear, when I close my eyes I can still hear, when I close my eyes That soothing cricket lullaby Under the Iowa sky Under the Iowa sky Under the Iowa sky Under the Iowa sky Copyright &copy; 2004 Ann-Marita Garsed.
