Secret Country
Appears on: Letters to the Editor, Vol. 2
Lyrics:
We were seventeen
Thought that we knew everything
Well, I knew you
And you knew me
At the sacred ceremony
It was just us,
Of the peace we had
I can simply say that it was holy
When I let you in to
My secret country
My secret country
One nation only God had ever seen but me
And you became its queen
We were thirty-five
The last few years were hard and I
Wondered if you cared
If your ears could hear
The fights we had
Angry nights we went to bed
You said “this needs to change”
And we were not the same
When you led me to
Your secret country
Your secret country
One nation only God had ever seen set free
And freedom came for me
Land still undiscovered
Deep and flowing living water
Forests green and mountains reaching
To the skies that hold the stars for you and me
Our secret country
