John Denver - The Foxfire Suite Lyrics
Spring is alive in Carolina, deep in the forest where the foxfire glows.
High on a mountain, down in a holler, thunder and lightning, so it goes.
Over a hundred years ago we came to Carolina, far across the water it's a long hard road.
With little more than courage we came seeking independence,
a little less than nothing is a heavy load.
hard work and simple ways and life is good, life is good.
Spring is alive in Carolina, deep in the forest where the foxfire glows.
High on a mountain, down in a holler, thunder and lightning, so it goes.
You are every morning sunrise, you are every rain.
You are every peal of laughter, you are every cry of pain.
You are all the summer flowers, you are all the falling leaves.
You are everyone rejoicing you are everyone who grieves.
You are all my unknown secrets, you are all my hidden fears.
You are known in lover's kisses, you are seen in childhood tears.
You are why the war is over, you are how the peace begins.
Whisper the wind over the water. Whisper the wind all through the night.
Whisper the wind along the canyon. Whisper the wind into the light.
Whisper the wind, brothers and sisters. Whisper the wind all the same.
Whisper the wind, love one another. Whisper the wind, your precious name.
Spring is alive in Carolina, deep in the forest where the foxfire glows.
High on a mountain, down in a holler, thunder and lightning, so it goes.
Spring is alive in Carolina, deep in the forest where the foxfire glows.
High on a mountain, down in a holler, thunder and lightning, so it goes so it goes.

John Denver The Foxfire Suite Comments
This is simply the MOST beautiful video ever created, IMO!
Amazing transitions.......
Super awesome and job well done! I truly loved the imagery of this song of the Spirit of Life and of Nature. Thank you.
i love this music. i miss john denver. thank for sharing.
The type of music that John Denver performed faded from popularity in the late 1970's. People preferred to listen to disco and rap. Having said that, this song is as good as any song Denver ever did.
You are right - but it was their greatest loss -
I just keep discovering these gems that this very gifted man created. You Can't help but be uplifted even in tough times. He had so much more to give too. Sorely missed :(.
Beautiful vid great song by John.
wow what a great song!
Thank you so much for this post.
IIRC, this is John's longest song. please correct me if I am wrong.
Hey, Soo Line. "The Season Suite" from Rocky Mountain High is 12 and a half minutes. Check it out. It's incredible!!
Great watching your videos, thank you for the trouble you go to.... Seeing Frankie and the others in the Mtn Chalet.. Bonus.. :))
Ahh thank you so much. I appreciate your comment very much. :)
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment.
This is a beautiful post. Thanks
Hi Frankie, Feel free to share with your friends I don't mind at all. :)
This is so beautiful Marion! I hope you don't mind me sharing your videos with my JD Facebook friends!
It seems we all seek what we do not have or to go to places we have not been - I went to Canada and Alaska - I went to Norway and Scotland - finally realised New Zealand was paradise. And yes, I went to your Ireland which is as beautiful as all these places . Love this suite as it seems to echo this wanderlust but also the love of a particular place. Peace as always my friend.
