Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'll close my eyes and listen

To hear the corn come out

Don't you hear the stars? They glisten

As we go in and out

[Verse 2]

Down where the trees grow together

And the western path comes to an end

See the sign, it says, "Clear weather"

I'll meet you tonight, my friend

[Chorus]

Will the corn be growin' a little tonight?

As I wait in the fields for you

Who knows what grows in the morning light

When we can feel the watery dew

[Verse 3]

I just can't be there with no other

I know those hills will be true

Away from my sister and brother

Down through the grasses so new

[Verse 4]

The air is sweet and steady

And flowers bloom out of sight

I know the sky is ready

Come meet me down here tonight

[Chorus]

Will the corn be growing a little tonight?

As I wait in the fields for you

Who knows what grows in the morning light

As we can feel the watery dew
