Deep In the Valley

Deep in the valley where the grass is velvety green With snow topped mountains surrounding each side Tis the most beautiful sight I have ever seen They seem to stretch so far and wide. The river runs through the beautiful valley It supplies water for animals of the wild I remember running barefoot through it When I was but only a mere child. The old cabin still stands there by the river All run down and the roof falling in Oh but if I could only go back in time I would live in that that old cabin again. The deer would come and drink right by your side At night you could hear the coyote howl very clear The sounds to me were very soothing For I knew there was nothing for me to fear. Now that I live in a far away city I hope someday to return there for good For I miss the quiet and peacefullness Soon I will retire and return just like I knew I would.
