Fields of Gold



You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we walk in fields of gold
So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of Barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of Barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

by Sting

Recently on the way to our last camping trip, I had seen the foot hills scattered with yellow flowers. I thought of this song by Sting (although the field is not barley). I wanted so badly for Charlie to stop so that I could take some pictures. I did not dare ask because I already knew what the answer would have been. It is kinda hard to pull over with a trailer behind you on a busy road. On the way back from our camping trip, I had my camera ready and took some pictures from the window as we drove by. What a girl has gotta to do to get some pics. I know that it just looks like dry foot hills to some, but through my eyes ~ I think it is beautiful.

  3. It is beautiful.
    It almost looks Mediterranean, or like Tuscany.
    It's amazing what a variety of landscapes you have in the US.
    The music fits perfectly.
