"Fields Of Gold" lyrics

"Fields Of Gold"

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold

So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me? Will you be my love?
Among the fields of barley
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We'll walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

Sting wrote this song inspired by the sunsets and the colors of the field near his new house. His love at the time, Trudie Styler, was also the inspiration. They got married in 1992, and she would say that the song was one of her favorites.
Sting started to write the song on a guitar, but the complete version features harmonica and Northumbrian smallpipes.
The music video features Sting walking through a usual UK village where a red telephone box and a red pillar box can be seen.
Though "Fields of Gold" single reached only number 16 on the UK Singles Chart and number 23 on the US Billboard Hot 100, this song became Sting's signature song.
