Gold Bars in the Sun

There’s a girl in a town
a town that I love
I wish I could stay there the rest of my life
but life has a habit and love has a way
of making you move when you just want to stay
I’m in love with a town it runs in my blood
I wish I could stay
but I can’t have them both
It’s a slow quiet place
she think’s we’re too young
but I like the pace just rolling along
Where the hay bales lie out
like gold bars in the sun
and an ocean of songs
blows on the west wind
She’s the girl I will marry
She’ll make me a Dad
I know she’s the best friend
that I’ve ever had
I’m in love with a town
but a town can’t compare
so whereever she goes
I will follow her there
I’ll just blow with the wind and hope that someday
the road that we take
will lead back some way
To where the hay bales lie out
like gold bars in the sun
and an ocean of songs blows on the west wind
