When it rains it snows in this prairie town   There's a good three inches on the ground   It seems I'll be losing any peace I've found      I see your face all over this town   But I know you're nowhere to be found   You're far away, you're safe and sound      Far from this prairie town   Far from this prairie town      So leaving seems the thing to do   When I'm here I'm lost in thoughts of you   And in my dreams I'm city bound      But if you ask me to come to you   To leave these fields and these skies of blue   You know I'd be leaving my sacred ground      Leaving this prairie town   Leaving this prairie town      No one's love comes close to yours   Nothing's what it was before   My eyes are heavy and my heart is sore      Leaving this prairie town   Leaving this prairie town      When it rains it snows in this prairie town   And we just watch it fall to the ground   And wait for love to come around      So ask me in that way you do   And I'll leave these fields and I'll come to you   And watch my heart as it breaks in two      I'm leaving this prairie town   I'm leaving this prairie town
