Life brings us patience,
But patience is fleeing
The closer we crowd
Its humble, hungry heart
Let's move to the country
Where patience breathes easy
Where time goes on vacation,
Where families can start
We'll build ourselves a house
We'll carve it out of stone
We can hammer through frustrations
That chill us to the bone
We can solve the world's problems
Along the hillside, all alone
Let's move to the country
We'll call it our home
Life sends us walking
But walking means nothing
If you don't keep your head up,
Along the path shall you part
Let's move to the country
Where walking has direction
Where time goes on vacation,
Where families can start
We'll build ourselves a house
We'll carve it out of stone
We can hammer through frustrations
That chill us to the bone
We can solve the world's problems
Along the hillside, all alone
Let's move to the country
We'll call it our home
