Lyrics

(Lyrics and music by james seals, 1967
Released by the knickerbockers on the album, lloyd thaxton presents the knickerbockers
Also recorded 2/21/67 and released on sundazed record's cd, "the knickerbockers."
From the s & c album get closer (1976)
Sampled on the 1997 rap hit by busta rhymes, "put your hands where my eyes can see."
Lookin' up the sleeve of confidence, I jump down from the fence
Been a long time since I've felt this way, let the feeling stay
Reaching for the arms of love, livin', dreamin', thinkin' of
The moment I slip on the glove, my fear is gone. the grain of hope has grown

Starin' at the face of happiness, this time it answers yes
In aging peace my doubts will rest away, let the feeling stay
Looking through the eyes of truth, I see faith and love and youth
And all else dries up like the dew, my fear is gone. the grain of hope has grown
And I'll be running, laughing, playing in the sweet green fields of belonging to someone

The distant feeling's gone, and I can make it from now on
My world has something new. it's all because of you
The sweet green fields growing in my life will never die

Lookin' up the sleeve of confidence, I jump down from the fence
Been a long time since I've felt this way, let the feeling stay
Walking up the road of togetherness, this time I must confess
This day's the very best. my fear is gone. the grain of hope has grown
And I'll be running, laughing, playing in the sweet green fields of belonging to someone
Now I'll be running, laughing, playing in the sweet green fields of belonging to someone
Well I'll be running, laughing, playing in the sweet green fields of belonging to someone
