lyrics

13. Our Family Home 04:17

We’ve come to say good bye to
our family home
To one more time enjoy
the paths that we’ve roamed
To walk again along the trickling stream
To lean our backs against that old walnut tree
To turn our eyes up to the circling sky
To see that eagle flying higher and higher
It’s awful hard to have to stand by and watch
But in the end it all comes out in the wash
Memories so sweet / Memories retreat
It’s time to say good bye to our family home
To think again
about the seeds that were sown
Gather together to be set to the wind
Always remembering the home that had been
Let’s turn our eyes up to the circling sky
We’ll all be reunited there by and by
So now we stand before our family home
Holding in each of us
the love we were shown
Say goodbye with me say goodbye with me
