This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the I Want To Live album, and has also been released on the The Country Roads Collection album.Got ripplin' waters to wake meTo be more than my woman in loveAll pine trees are pointin' to see easilyTo see heaven aboveBlue spruce flamin' on the grate in the eveningTakes the chill away fineCut the telephone lineThe story's the sameThere's a worn red chair by the windowThat you found at a sale down the wayWhen some old women said that theyNeeded more room for the winterPeople like pullin' at the stuffingWhen they sit downSo it passes the timeCut the telephone lineThe story's the sameOoh, like a bubble on a windy dayStart to flutter when I hear you sayThat you feel too good to go awayAnd you make me feel fineAnd you made the world a warmer placeBy the sparkle of your diamond faceOn a gray spot with a little laceAnd you make me feel fineWarm as a mountain in sunshineOn the edge of the snowlineIn a meadow of columbineOh little GenniferI'd give a penny forWhat you've got on your mindSeems like most of the time you're lyin' there dreamin'Maybe in your vision you see howOur mission is slightly less than divineCut the telephone lineThe story's the sameNow, ripplin' waters flow through the ceilingAnd the walls there, their keepin' me warmAnd the closest I've been with my family for daysIs my musicBut the silently stare in the morning skyIs like hearing her calling my nameCut the telephone lineThe story might changeOoh, like a bubble on a windy dayStart to flutter when I hear you sayThat you feel too good to go awayAnd you make me feel fineWarm as a mountain sunshineOn the edge of the snowlineIn a meadow of columbineWords and music by Jimmy Ibotson
