The Mists Of Crofton

And around it goes... how were they to know?
 That around it goes... we live with our eyes closed
 A lone cloud lingers over the land
 Beauty faces the time's demands
 Nature rules over seas and sand
 And so form the mists of Crofton
 A native people they understand
 The balance needed to work the land
 So they continue hand in hand
 To live off the shores of Crofton
 And around it goes... how were they to know?
 That around it goes... we live with our eyes closed
 The shoreline changed with the settlement
 The land still gives, so the money's spent
 There's provisions for home and for government
 And they're reaped from the shores of Crofton
 The money's there and the factories boom
 The people smile at impending doom
 Even the sunset is changing hue
 Thick are the mists of Crofton
 And around it goes... how were they to know?
 That around it goes... we live with our eyes closed
 One step forward and two steps back
 You gotta make up for the things that you lack
 Assault the land in a final attack then move on!
 The recession lingers, the wells run dry
 There's nothing left to take so the factories die
 The land's been raped and there's no one to cry
 Lonely are the mists of Crofton, lonely are the mists of Crofton
 Lonely are the mists of Crofton, lonely are the mists of Crofton
 Lonely are the mists of Crofton
