before concrete and steel - orway lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m remembering this land
way before concrete and steel
this avenue where i now stand
was then a vast prairie so still
at dawn in the middle of the forest
bathed in the morning mist
i use to watch on the lake brink
wild animals now extinct

[verse 2]
then one day, i saw on the shore
so many sailing boats berth
soon after we were at war
to the new world was given birth
then the place where i grew up
was renamеd manhattan
and the prairies werе covered up
with concrete and steel, and macadam
[verse 3]
now the wilderness i use to adore
with its wonderful fauna and flora
just doesn’t exist anymore
but it survives in my heart
and i’m still able to feel
on my skin the flower*scented breeze
that use to blow in the prairies
before concrete and steel
