The Foxfire Suite Lyrics

Spring is alive in Carolina
Deep in the forest where the foxfire blows
High on a mountain, down in holler
Thunder and lightning, so it goes

Over a hundred years ago we came to Carolina
Far across the water, it′s a long hard road
With little more than courage we came seeking independence
A little less than nothin' is a heavy load

From the heather to the highlands we have found the Smokey Mountains
Hard work and simple ways and life is good, life is good

Spring is alive in Carolina
Deep in the forest where the foxfire blows
High on a mountain, down in holler
Thunder and lightning, so it goes

You are every morning sunrise, you are every rain
You are every peal of laughter, you are every cry of pain
You are all the summer flowers, you are all the falling leaves
You are everyone rejoicing, you are everyone who grieves

You are all my unknown secrets, you are all my hidden fears
You are known in lovers′ kisses, you are seen in childhood tears
You are where the stars are shining, you are where the rainbow ends
You are why the war is over, you are how the peace begins

Whisper the wind over the water
Whisper the wind all through the night
Whisper the wind along the canyon
Whisper the wind into the light
Whisper the wind brothers and sisters
Whisper the wind all the same
Whisper the wind love one another
Whisper the wind your precious name

Spring is alive in Carolina
Deep in the forest where the foxfire glows
High on a mountain, down in a holler
Thunder and lightning, so it goes

Spring is alive in Carolina
Deep in the forest where the foxfire glows
High on a mountain, down in a holler
Thunder and lightning, so it goes

So it goes
