IN THE GRAND WAY

           Words & Music by John Martin Sommers

In the grand way she loves me
The way she holds me close to rest with me
And to know she is my life to me
My empty days are done
My runnin' days are run
And for the first time I love the morning

Burning sundowns, colored autumn trees
I can still hear the lonely sound
The engines of a midnight freight train northward bound
And to feel my life slowly losing ground
I never quite understood
Though I see it for the good
And it seems like I've just been dreaming
