People change, families grow |
|
There are hands I am holding |
|
That I didn't know |
|
Back when home was a place |
|
And I thought that growing up was a phase |
|
There are wrinkles on my hands |
|
That weren't there |
|
When I started making plans |
|
And plans change |
|
Iowa, I don't know how to leave you |
|
Don't know how to tell you goodbye |
|
Iowa, I am a field after harvest |
|
Sowing under a new sky |
|
Iowa |
|
My soul is weathered but green |
|
When a storm passes over the roots are unseen |
|
Until all is laid bare |
|
And the hope that I needed was already there |
|
Iowa, I don't know how to leave you |
|
Don't know how to tell you goodbye |
|
Iowa, I am a field after harvest |
|
Sowing under a new sky |
|
Iowa |
|
There are wrinkles on my hands |
|
That weren't there |
|
When I started making plans |
|
And plans change |
|
But you haven't changed |
|
Iowa, I don't know how to leave you |
|
Don't know how to tell you goodbye |
|
Iowa, I am a field after harvest |
|
Sowing under a new sky |
|
Iowa |
