BIG CITY SCENES, COUNTRY DREAMS

Tall buildings in the distance stand,
It just doesn't seem so grand.
When you are four life should mean a little more.
Toys, hugs and kisses these are what a little girl misses.

Chorus....
When I was four a new life knocked on my door.
That's when I exchanged big city scenes for country dreams.
That's when I knew what caring meant,
My new mom and dad must have been heaven sent.
I exchanged big city scenes for country dreams.

One brother and sisters totaling four,
Seems like I should know them a little more.
When life deals you a bad hand you try to understand.
Thank God for caring hearts, but why must they tear us apart?
We can't choose who we want to our moms and dads to be,
Why can't they see?
When there is love around a new life can be found.

Chorus...

They have made us cry now we have to say goodbye.
See what they have done, now we are no longer one.
How can a little girl understand why? This old life must die.
She has already felt a lifetime of pain things from now on will never be the same.

Chorus...

I am grown up now and time has gone so fast,
But how do you forget the past?
I no longer hear the big city call, seems like I was never there at all.
I could never go back there my home is here now because...
I have exchanged big city scenes for country dreams.
I now know what love means and no longer have big city scenes.
Just Country Dreams.

Chorus...
