I'm sending you some money I wish it could be more But it's harder than I thought To find the work I came here for This place is just as pretty As I pictured it to be But a man in need of work's An all too common sight to see Each morning as the trucks roll in A lucky few climb on And the rest of us are left to wonder Where the dream has gone Where the dream has gone They say the Sierra melts with the rain To race through the valley like blood through the vein Turning the lowland from golden to green To harvest forever the dreams of the San Joaquin Every day I struggle With the distance and the fear That I will not return Or find a way to bring you here My emptiness grows deeper I feel my spirit fall As night comes like a blanket It brings no sleep at all I only hope that time will find A way to work things out We will be together In the life we dream about Life we dream about They say the Sierra melts with the rain To race through the valley like blood through the vein Turning the lowland from golden to green To harvest forever the dreams of the San Joaquin We'll harvest forever the dreams of the San Joaquin
