The Valley
(David Hidalgo/Louie Pérez)

In ancient times
To a place so far away
Across the land where the earth was as tough as clay
Looked at their hands looked all around
And they seemed so pleased at what they found

Here in the valley
Bread on the table
Work all day hard for as long as we are able
Green is the valley
Blue is the night
Out of the shadows into the light

They could’ve gone
But instead they chose to stay
To watch the clouds way up high as they turned to grey
Then through the dark broke a crimson sun
And at that moment, knew their lives had just begun

Here in the valley
Bread on the table
Work all day hard for as long as we are able
Green is the valley
Blue is the night
Out of the darkness into the light
