lyrics

By foot through spring and cover crop
I wait, to hear your impression
Through lanky Maple forest shade
A carpet of golden green open to the sky

Hunters displeased at our presence
Across the river, monster trucks are roaring

A thicket threshold to the prairie's light
Green Dragonflies flirt nervously

The land remembers
Remnants, remnants
The man remembers
Remnanats, remnants

A Bumble Bee mama underfoot
Opening doorways to another world
Where baby's placed upon the flowers
Sweet flesh tickled and warmed by the sun

Grazing has robbed the Prairie
Could fire bring it back to life?

A portrait of an ancient tree stands
At the cross roads of the future and past

This land remembers
Remnants, remnants
This man remembers
Remnants, remnants

To get to know the Prairie Smoke
One must return
Year after year, this courtship
Remnants, remnants
