Lyrics

In The Making

I’ll take that old bird up, it’s been awhile
And fly down the valley
I’ll follow the lake, along Wild Horse Canyon
Over our peaceful mountain
I know, I know what you’re thinking
Up here, I know, what you’re thinking

We danced all night and worked all day
These tired old bones this land will take
But before I go and wither away
There’s a dream, dream, a dream in the making

If you could see them now, maybe you can
They’ve grown into beautiful people
One’s got your laugh, the other your eyes
We talk about you all the time
I know, I know what you’re thinking
Up here, I know, what you’re thinking

We danced all night and worked all day
These tired old bones this land will take
But before I go and wither away
There’s a dream, dream, a dream in the making

In the making, we’re all dreams
When I’m done, after that final breath
I’ll see you again, until then

I’ve got to get home, before the sun sets
Land this old bird, on the tarmac
They’ll be there, the grandkids too
They’ll come running, my god they’d love you
I know, I know what you’re thinking
Up here, I know, what you’re thinking

We danced all night and worked all day
These tired old bones this land will take
But before I go and wither away
There’s a dream, dream, a dream in the making, in the making
Still in the making, we’re all dreams, in the making
