Soon to be sunrise I come from my bed
and I sit on the window bench
Now I ponder upon this wonderland,
we’ve created in each other’s arms
You kissed the hurt of the world from my brow
your eyes so full of fun of light
Dance so freely over my sadness
makes me want to fill your desires
CHORUS *
So come on prairie girl, spin the wheel
take your chances like the rest
one of these days it’s gonna work out
prairie girl is prairie blessed
Want to hug you, want you to hold me
whisper to you my intentions
But you know I fear you’ll take my heart
scatter it throughout this prairie town
Listen to the sea it calls you home
it always was your first love
Take me with you but you know I won’t stay
need the wild roses everyday
(repeat *)
** And to be blessed is to be thankful
and I’m thankful for so much
I’m thankful for the moment
when the sun sets on a ready field of wheat
