	They came from scandinavia, the land of midnight sun And crossed the north atlantic when this century was young They’d heard that in america every man was free To live the way he chose to live and be who he could be Some of them were farmers there and tilled the frozen soil But all they got was poverty for all their earnest toil They say one was a sailor who sailed the wide world round Made home port, got drunk one night, walked off the pier and drowned My mother was of scottish blood, it’s there that she was born They brought her to america in 1924 They left behind the highlands and the heather-covered hills And came to find america with broad expectant dreams and iron wills My granddad worked the steel mills of central illinois His daughter was his jewel, his son was just his boy For thirty years he worked the mills and stoked the coke-fed fires And looked toward the day when he’d at last turn 65 and could retire And the sons become the fathers and their daughters will be wives As the torch is passed from hand to hand And we struggle through our lives Though the generations wander, the lineage survives And all of us, from dust to dust We all become forefathers by and by The woman and the man were wed just after the war And they settled in this river town and three fine sons she bore One became a lawyer and one fine pictures drew And one became this lonely soul Who sits here now and sings this song to you And the sons become the fathers and their daughters will be wives As the torch is passed from hand to hand And we struggle through our lives Though the generations wander, the lineage survives And all of us, from dust to dust We all become forefathers by and by More lyrics from Dan Fogelberg .: (Someone's Been) Telling You Stories .: A Cry in The Forest .: A Love Like This .: A Voice for Peace .: All There Is .: Along The Road .: Anastasia's Eyes .: Anyway I Love You .: As The Raven Flies .: Aspen .: Aurora Nova .: Be on Your Way .: Beggar's Game .: Believe In Me .: Below The Surface .: Better Change .: Blind to The Truth .: Bones in The Sky .: Captured Angel .: Changing Horses .: Comes & Goes .: Comes And Goes .: Crow .: Dancing Shoes .: Down The Road .: Empty Cages .: Ever On .: Ever On (a Traveling Prayer) .: Exiles .: Face The Fire .: Faces Of America .: False Faces .: Forefathers .: Ghosts .: Give Me Some Time .: Go Down Easy .: Gone Too Far .: Gypsy Wind .: Hard to Say .: Heart Hotels .: Hearts in Decline .: Hickory Grove .: High Country Snows .: Higher Ground .: Holy Road .: Illinois .: In The Passage .: Intimidation .: It Doesn't Matter .: Leader of The Band .: Lessons Learned .: Let Her Go .: Lonely in Love .: Long Way Home .: Long Way Home (Live In The Country) .: Longer .: Looking for a Lady .: Loose Ends .: Lost in The Sun .: Love Gone By .: Lovers in a Dangerous Time .: Magic Every Moment .: Make Love Stay .: Man in The Mirror .: Missing You .: More Than Ever .: Morning Sky .: Mountain Pass .: Nether Lands .: Next Time .: Nexus .: Old Tennessee .: Once Upon a Time .: Only The Heart May Know .: Our Last Farewell .: Over & Over .: Over And Over .: Part of The Plan .: Phoenix .: Promises Made .: Rhythm of The Rain .: River of Souls .: Road Beneath My Wheels .: Run for The Roses .: Same Old Lang Syne .: Scarecrow's Dream .: Seeing You Again .: Serengeti Moon .: Shallow Rivers .: She Don't Look Back .: Since You've Asked .: Sketches .: Song from Half Mountain .: Song of The Sea .: Souvenirs .: Stars .: Stolen Moments .: Sutter's Mill .: Sweet Magnolia .: Sweet Magnolia (and The Travelling Salesman) Click here for all the other lyrics of Dan Fogelberg !
