Postcards From Paonia Songtext
von Humbird

I went a-walkin′ along a cool stream
And the world so real became a dream
Fruit hanging heavy and birds that sing
Mother, I fear that I may never leave

Then came the rain with the evening twilight
And the geese in the meadow resting from flight
Lambourn blushed pink amongst golden trees
Father forgive me I may never leave


I met a man with his hands in the dirt
Played punk music for veggies and wore a black shirt
Carrots and cabbage, the last and the first
Sister, come visit and taste what they're worth

The mushrooms arrived as the august moon waned
And I howled through canyons, perhaps went insane
Brother, believe me, you′ll love this place
Where the seasons run fast and the mountain still waits

Three months have passed and I must away
Depart the valley white buffalo reigns
A sweet wind will guide me in circles around
Til the day I return to plant roots in the ground
Til the day I return to plant roots in the ground
