Out in the Country.....

Out In The Country

Whenever I need to leave it all behind
Or feel the need to get away
I find a quiet place, far from the human race
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Whenever I feel them closing in on me
Or need a bit of room to move
When life becomes too fast, I find relief at last
Out in the country

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime
Out where the rivers like to run
I stand alone and take back somethin' worth rememberin'

Before the breathin' air is gone
Before the sun is just a bright spot in the nighttime...

I stand alone...

My friend Mary does wonderful things with 

her regular posts "Mosaic Monday"

they are filled with 

imagination,

love,

a creative eye,

thoughtfulness,

and 

a quiet observance of what

makes this world special.....

This week,

her work reminded me of this song...

one of my favorites from the 70's.

It brings back those carefree summers

that I spent in my teen years

lifeguarding at one of the local 

pools......

acquiring a tan,

reading trashy novels,

laughing with friends,

and 

of course,

blowing that whistle!

smiles.
