The Love of a Homeland

Looking out at the dark night sky 
I see the stars as they travel by
The clouds floating in the dark sky
Give a person a reason to fly
What a beautiful sight to see the sun begin to rise

The colors of pink blue and orange
Shining in the once dark sky
What is the place I speak of 
I call it home but most call it mountain country
The glow of the sun on the mountain side

Brings joy and love to life
Seeing through the eyes of a child 
You can see the colors in a different light
What’s it like to live in the mountains
The mountain sky fills with clouds and the trees start to frown

But falling down from the sky is rain 
And a rainbow shows in the mountain frame
A frame with so much to show 
A frame with color and beauty that flow
What you ask is this song about
 
Its about my home
My country 
My homeland 
The place that I most love
