Not a true story

lyrics

Ozark Dream
If I were to stand upon that rock and cast your name to the valley far down below I would hear my own name echo through the hills because they go together don’t you know.
And if I were to float upon that winding river, would I find you wading near the shore? You would tip your straw hat and I would pass some moonshine to you on the end of my oar.

But dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars.
You were never meant for me.

If I were to run across the meadow would you meet me in suspenders with blue flowers in your hand? Gazing out as far as we could see, you would tell me that one day all of this would be our land.
You’d whistle O Susanna while you make a daisy chain and place it so gently in my hair...Pull me down into the tall and waving grasses and kiss me; not one soul would find us there.

But dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars.
You were never meant for me.

If you were to knock upon my door I would say nothing but I might blush before I look away. And you would brush so close to me that I’d pretend we’re dancing to the fiddle with a slow and steady sway.
And I’d pretend my sister did not run into your arms and offer you some warm bread from the stove. And I’d pretend you winked at me and I’d pretend you wanted me to meet you later down at Stovall's Grove.

But dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars
You were never meant for me.

Dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars;
you were never meant for me
Dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars;
you were never meant for me
Dreams just go so far when I wish on falling stars...
