NEIL YOUNG LYRICS - Field Of Opportunity

"Field Of Opportunity"



I've been wrong before

And I'll be there again

I don't have

any answers my friend

Just this pile of old questions

My memory left me here

In the field of opportunity

It's plowin' time again.



I'm going' back to my house

But I'm not goin' now

It's too early

to be leaving here, somehow

Let me bore you with this story

"How my lover let me down"

While I borrow seeds of sadness

From the ground.



In the field of opportunity

It's plowin' time again.

There ain't no way of telling

Where these seeds

will rise or when

I'll just wait

around 'til springtime

And then, I'll find a friend

In the field of opportunity

It's plowin' time again.



When I'm all done cultivatin'

I'll be rockin' on the porch

Tryin' to picture

you and where you are

And there'll be no hesitatin'

When Cupid lights the torch

With those headlights

comin' down the hill

Between the stars.



In the field of opportunity

It's plowin' time again.

There ain't no way of telling

Where these seeds

will rise or when

I'll just wait

around 'til springtime

And then, I'll find a friend

In the field of opportunity

It's plowin' time again.
