lyrics

as a wise man asked are you far from home
he can see the look in your eyes
as he rode up on his horse then tied her to a tree
he can't find a way to break free

Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away
Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away

in a quest for a plan he fell to his knees
and he cried another thousand tears
like a whirlwind blowing he lost some years
like a wolf hunted down by a lamb

Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away
Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away

As he saw an exit sign on the side of the road
he tried to force himself to look away
haunted by the memories of a life that could have been
and the wolf that he was once has died within

Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away
Wide open fields are slowly closing in
as time starts to chase him away
