lyrics

Born on a mountain
My head in the clouds
To the west was the ocean
Valleys, and farms
Raised among giants
These sisters of the land
I bathed in their waters
Slept in their hands

A howl at the moon
A wind through the trees
A fish on the end of the line

It’s all mine to gain
A simple reminder
Her secret is patience and mine is the same

If you should go
To where I am from
Remember me to my favorite haunt
The bridge by the creek
Where I lost my voice
Singing for supper and a bluebird sky
I wish I’d have known
Time’s slow decay
Lost as a memory now

Speak not of sorrow Sisters of mine
You’re always with me I’ll be back in time
A life on the road, and a home far from here
My Oregon home
My Oregon home

When you return
From the place I come from
Take only backroads
Make time to get lost
Swim naked in rivers
Put a line on the pole
Sleep under starlight
This place is your home
