Verse 1
She worked the family farm
big house, three barns
fields as far as she could see
Every morning up at dawn
Let the chicks feed in the lawn
then rest a spell under a tree
CHORUS
Oh, her dreams were in bloom
Oh, it was a beautiful view
on that cornfield afternoon
Verse 2
He was raised up town
where he learned to horse around
a little too much time on his hands
Perfect day to take a ride
so he fired up his bike
The rumble on his way to be a man
CHORUS
Oh, his hopes knee high in June
Oh, it was a beautiful view
on that cornfield afternoon
Bridge
He drove by her place; He saw it light up her face
Turned into her drive, their hearts raced
As the corn swayed, he kneeled in the shade
She cried, and they were engaged
Verse 3
Couple years went by
balloons filled the sky
right after they both said "I do."
They hung a bow on that tree
in the corner of the field
marking where their love first grew
CHORUS
Oh, just before Harvest Moon
Oh, it was a beautiful view
On that cornfield afternoon
