Lyrics

The sun climbs a little higher over the mountains everyday
It’s funny but just that little bit of sun
lifts my heart in the most wonderful way
Gives me faith that I won’t be consumed
by the darkness of these long winter nights
Gives proof that even when I don’t
the earth knows that everything is gonna be alright
So I’m rooting down, yes I’m rooting down
Into my home ground

I hear beautiful bird songs out my window
and I wonder how they live in this cold
See I’ve been here my whole life and I have to wonder
if this is where I’m gonna grow old
I always thought I have to move somewhere far away
sunny and warm to find my bliss
But I’ve been a lot of place baby and I ain’t never seen
anything more wonderful more magical than this
So I’m rooting down, yes I’m rooting down
Yes I’m rooting down, oh I’m rooting down

And when it all seems impossible to take
And my desire to run exceeds my strength to stay
I plant my feet on this sacred ground and say
I know I’m home, I know I’m home

So I’m rooting down, yes I’m rooting down
Yes I’m rooting down, oh I’m rooting down
So I’m rooting down, yes I’m rooting down
Into my home ground
