Fields of Gold

197 / 365
One of my favourite songs from my past is Sting with Fields of Gold… it seems so long ago now.. Seeing the crop and smelling the air took me back. “Many years have passed since those summer days among the fields of barley” and so much has happened in those years. Life is strange, wonderful and cruel..
Fields of gold - Sting

You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields of barley.
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we walk in fields of gold.
So she took her love for to gaze awhile upon the fields of barley.
In his arms she fell as her hair came down among the fields of gold.

Will you stay with me, will you be my love among the fields of barley?
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we lie in fields of gold.
See the west wind move like a lover so upon the fields of barley.
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth among the fields of gold.

I never made promises lightly and there have been some that I've broken,
But I swear in the days still left we'll walk in fields of gold.
We'll walk in fields of gold.
Many years have passed since those summer days among the fields of barley.
See the children run as the sun goes down among the fields of gold.
You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields of barley.
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky when we walked in fields of gold,
When we walked in fields of gold, when we walked in fields of gold.

Like you, this is one of my favorite songs. It was featured in my son's wedding video back when he got married in 1998. Unfortunately they are now divorced, but at least all still friends. But every time I hear it I can't help but be sad :( In fact, reading the words now brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful photo and sentiments.
