Place I Know

Time stands still as I remember the thrill Of wind in my face as I'm biking downhill Just a kid on his own with freedom to roam With time for big thoughts before he's grown The brook's running clear where the big oaks grow Listen to screech owls in the place I know See the shooting stars as darkness grows Hear the whip-o-will call in the place I know You can smell the scent of the new mown hay And see a morning rainbow to start the day I still hear a friend call, Can you come out to play And taste the cookie dough before heading on our way The brook's running clear where the big oaks grow Listen to screech owls in the place I know See the shooting stars as darkness grows Hear the whip-o-will call in the place I know The place I know seems so far away now As traffic flows and deadlines are met somehow Everyone's on a phone with results hard to show As memories take me back to that place I know The brook's running clear where the big oaks grow Listen to screech owls in the place I know See the shooting stars as darkness grows Hear the whip-o-will call in the place I know
