Jorma Kaukonen - Seasons in the Field lyrics

rate me

We thought we had it all

All grown up inside our skin

Take a guess and mind your tongue

Bring it on let love begin today

Life was never simpler than

It was just another time

We tried to find convention without losing peace of mind

I measured time that summer

With songs and sets of strings

Duty seemed so far away

One more song before summer ends

Season keep on measuring

The time we spend on Earth

None of that made sense back then

And no one saw the worth

Friendships come and love times flow

And we are all made of dust

The moment and the vision

Am I sure it’s what I really saw?

Years began to change like seasons in the field

The crops left they gave so much

Our time won’t last forever

No matter what we thought

And freedom can’t be bought

Looking in the mirror

We did the best we could

A bargain with the devil

Is always paid and then we run

Nothing was so real then

As waking up these days

And that was before me

Were scattered thoughts that circled around my mind

I had no vision

I was living inside a cloud

Inside then was more than God allowed

Then one day when all that passed

I’ve woken to myself

A thousand days had come and gone

And outside there was autumn in the trees

Each precious moment

Was a blessing in disguise

I never saw so clearly

It was right before my eyes

Our time won’t last forever

No matter what we thought

And freedom can’t be bought

Looking in the mirror

We did the best we could

A bargain with the devil

Is always paid and then we run

I still see a moment that keeps living in my heart

I can turn my back on memories

They open all the doors that shield today

On a foundation we’ve been building since our youth

I got close and each friend grabbed me in truth
