An ode to childhood innocence. The liner notes to Motor Cycle identify “Buffalo Hills” as a little-league park where Terry Taylor’s son, Andrew, plays baseball.
[Verse 1]
I float on a cloud between the boy and the ball
The long-haired mermaids lie on rocks by the ocean
Around the diamond grass
My blue-eyed dream comes home at last
[Chorus 1]
To the Buffalo Hills
To the Buffalo Hills
[Verse 2]
Here's God disguised as men in dark shirts and masks
In the center of a galaxy, I breathe bright stars and planets
Sun dips to kiss the earth
My angel makes the play at first
[Chorus 2]
On the Buffalo Hills
On the Buffalo Hills
[Bridge]
Snap shot, visible sign
Spirit moving, bending the grasses
Runs free down the chalkline
Child of wonder
Long legs and lashes
[Verse 3]
Proud fathers cursing the fates, then speaking in tongues
Our dim dreams circle the moon, like fog around gaslight
When all is said and done
We pray that innocence has won
[Chorus 2]
On the Buffalo Hills
On the Buffalo Hills
[Verse 4]
In flares of distant nights
I see it all work out all right
[Chorus 2]
On the Buffalo Hills
On the Buffalo Hills
On the Buffalo Hills
On the Buffalo Hills
[Outro]
I float on a cloud between the boy and the ball
