For Him Just A Memory

For him just a memory of another day The songs of the wood birds and the sweet scent of hay Far from the noisy suburbs where he lives and works for pay In the high country in distance far away A young man fromthe country near his physical prime homesickness has eased in him over time It was his need for self betterment brought him to the suburbs for to live To leave family and friends and a place he love for a better life himself he can forgive A tall handsome young man of short clipped hair of sandy brown Feeling happy with life in the big urban town With a pretty young woman who is to be his wife All is going well for him in love and in life Yet in his memory of the hills far away He can hear the birds sing and scent the sweetness of hay.
