    lyrics to Fields Of Gold / Sting

    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 the 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 the 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 the fields of gold
    We'll walk in the 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 the fields of gold
    When we walked in the fields of gold
    When we walked in the fields of gold

    SONG MEANING / BACKGROUND INFO
    - This is about feeling joyous, but knowing that the joy is going to end someday.

    - Sting wrote this after he bought a house near a barley field. The sunsets and the colors of the field were an inspiration for the lyrics, along with his love at the time.

    - The major theme in this is commitment. It is about a man who has broken promises before, but is determined make this relationship last.

    - The story is chronological. It is about courtship, marriage, and eventual death. The two people in the song meet, court, fall in love (at this point, he reveals that he has never really made such a strong promise/commitment to someone) but feels he is ready to now. "See the children run," their offspring and the "jealous sky" refer to the Heavens. Even Heaven is jealous of their love/relationship. The esteemed sun is jealous. Eventually, he dies and tells his love that they will always remember their love specifically, when she thinks of him, he wants to be personified as such... walking in fields of gold (barley).

    - Sting started writing this on the guitar. He thinks his simple songs are often his best, and uses this as an example.

    - Sting's wife, Trudie Styler, considers this one of her favorites.

    - The album title is a play on Sting's real name, Gordon Sumner, as well as a reference to The Canterbury Tales. In the book, which was written by Geoffrey Chaucer in the 1400s, people from different backgrounds each tell stories, including tales by a nun, a miller, a knight, and a summoner. A summoner was someone who summoned a person for the king or some formal function. Like the book, Sting thought the album was a collection of songs that told many different tales.
