under the iowa sky - ann-marita lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s a gentle breeze across the golden fields
on this late summer’s day
and the old boys are playin’ cards
down at hazel’s cafe
[pre-chorus 1]
i walk past the row of white picket fences
this moment in time is fillin’ up my senses
ooh, like it was yesterday
[chorus]
ooh, whoa, time’s been slippin’ by away from me
from school pep rallies and pecan pies to pop-star wannabe
but i can still hear, when i close my eyes
that soothing cricket lullaby
under the iowa sky
[verse 2]
star-struck at sixteen, had to get away
from that midwestern town
so i placed my bets and packed my bags
sure got myself around
[pre-chorus 2]
my heart’s been broken blow by blow
i’ve prayed without faith and paid without dough
whoa, each time seemed like i was homeward-bound
[chorus]
whoa, time’s been slippin’ by away from me
from school pep rallies and pecan pies to pop-star wannabe
but i can still hear, when i close my eyes
that soothing cricket lullaby
under the iowa sky
[bridge]
some memories will give you sleepless nights
then others keep you strong and let you put up a good fight
[chorus + outro]
whoa, time, time keeps slippin’ away from me
i’m a country girl whose city life is right now what she needs
though i can still hear, when i close my eyes
yeah, i can still hear when i close my eyes
i still hear, when i close my eyes
that soothing cricket lullaby
under the iowa sky
under the iowa sky
yeah, yeah
