Singer/ Songwriter
Lately I took the time
To turn towards yesterday and take a look
Memories so clear like the written on the pages of a book
Like the heaven reaching mountains
With their snowcaps as a silhouette of time
And the little cabin where the river bends
I can hear the distant sound of prairie winds
And I guess it’s just an omen
‘cause I think I got Wyoming on my mind.
In a field of virgin snow
The only tracks you saw were the ones you left yourself
And windows clings and winds would blow
I can recall most exactly how it fells
Like the sins who are forgiven
And your soul was mingling with the rock of time
And I still miss Old Cheyenne in the fall
I keep thinking ‘bout the daddy of them all
And I guess I’m often roaming
Cause I think I got Wyoming on my mind.
As I look back cross the years
I suppose the greatest thrill I‘ve ever known
I was riding cross your frosty fields
To push your herd of white face cattle home
When those purple twilight shadows fall
Then lights go twinkling on – its supper time
It’s the closest place to heaven that I’ve been
And I think that I‘ll be going back again
So I guess I am going home
Because I think I got Wyoming on my mind.
So I guess I am going home
Because I think I got Wyoming on my mind.
