To the Village We Go

[Verse]
Me and my Elvira pack the car tight
Rick's behind the wheel grinning just right
Ralph the dog barks
His tail’s in a spin
The village calls
Let the weekend begin

[Chorus]
To the village we go
Where the wildflowers grow
Where the sky feels close
And the rivers flow slow
To the village we run
Under moon or sun
It’s simple
It’s sweet
It’s where we belong

[Verse 2]
Rick hums a tune
It’s off-key but gold
Elvira laughs
Says it never gets old
Ralph’s nose pressed to the window
So clear
The scent of the trees says the village is near

[Prechorus]
Fields roll like a quilt
Winds whisper with guilt

[Chorus]
To the village we go
Where the wildflowers grow
Where the sky feels close
And the rivers flow slow
To the village we run
Under moon or sun
It’s simple
It’s sweet
It’s where we belong

[Bridge]
The chickens will cluck
The kettle will sing
Elvira will dance
Oh
What joy she’ll bring
Rick will chop wood
Ralph will chase bees
Life in the village
Oh
It feels so free
