Harvest

I settle with the seasons
And pick up when they change
I hunt for reason
Wherever calls my name

Within familiar and foreign
A conflict has be torn
A part of me is destine to travel
While the other is tied to the place I was born

So when the seeds are sowed
I’ll be heading down the road
Racing to complete the circle in time
For when the crops are full grown

Y’know I’ve a wanderin’ spirit and deep it runs
Life offers no guarantees; my unfulfilled dreams will never be abandoned
But before I’m gone, know I won’t be away for too long
You’ll see my face sometime in September – I’ll be back when harvest comes

I know that pops
Each year gets a little harder
Taking off the crops alone
Ain’t suffice for you aging farmer

So while I’m out chasing dreams
I’ll keep an ear out for the homestead’s calling
And keep true to the word I left you with
I’ll be home in time for harvest

Y’know I’ve a wanderin’ spirit and deep it runs
Life offers no guarantees; I pursuing these dreams while I’m young
But when the crops turn from green to gold, remember what was told
A promise made by your only son - I’ll be back when harvest comes

I’ll see the ripe fields wave
And I’ll navigate my way toward
The family farmland to provide a helping hand
Because when the dust is cast, there’ll be no question at all

I’ll exchange my wandering ways in for
A pair of dirty overalls
