A wedding anniversary ride by coach to a corn field delights a couple as the corn leaps up to greet them with delight.

Come take a ride with me

On a slow coach to paradise

To a place where corn grows

- – -

Beneath the hoofs of the horses

Those brown and white beasts

That are surging ahead

Seem like a dream come true

For you and me

- – -

It’s our wedding anniversary ride

To a field where we once reside

A place above the roaring tide

Where our hearts abide

- – -

It’s the amazement of it all

That would enthrall

Like a free fall

For as the horses galloped on

Our hearts leaped up like corn

- – -

It’s as though we should know

The corn swayed from side to side

As if caught in a fierce storm
