Shenandoah Valley

The sun comes up
On the Shenandoah Valley
A steaming cup
Of coffee's lying next to me

In my arms
All the charms
Of the woman that I married
And the sun shines down on me

The mountains sing
And it's a song about a family
Birds take wing
And they float along so merrily

No alarms
Just your charms
And the sun
How it warms
From so far away
So far away from it all

Do you know how the sun can
Make a shadow
On the evening side of the hill?

Up above in the mountains
The stillness and quiet
The living inside it
The meadow-bird's trill

Take a pause
Looking down on the valley
There's no clause
That says we couldn't stay

Take your time
Think it through
Rest your mind
I'm thinking too
A life so far away
So far away from it all

Do you know how the sun can
Spread a blanket
On the morning side of the hill?

The valley at morning
All spread out before me
We watch it slowly fill
