Fern Valley

Verse 1

Morning mist rolls down the ridge line slow

Down past the fence posts where the brambles grow

I packed my boots and I packed my bread

Left the city noise on the other side of the road

Pre-Chorus

And the river keeps on running

Through the stones and through the years

And I keep on coming back here

To remember who I am

Chorus

Fern Valley calls me home again

Where the old oak bends against the wind

Fern Valley where the ground is soft and true

And the sun comes burning through

Verse 2

Sister Mary said the fields were turning gold

I said I'd see them when the summer finally rolled

She left a jar of honey by the cabin door

And a note that said we never needed any more

Pre-Chorus

And the river keeps on singing

Through the moss and through the rain

And I keep on coming back here

To wash away the strain

Chorus

Fern Valley calls me home again

Where the old oak bends against the wind

Fern Valley where the ground is soft and true

And the sun comes burning through

Bridge

Sometimes I think about the road I chose

The miles of gravel and the hills of dust

But every time the winter gets me low

I see the valley waiting and I trust

Chorus

Fern Valley calls me home again

Where the old oak bends against the wind

Fern Valley where the ground is soft and true

And the sun comes burning through
