Grab an old' notepad and pencil Lace up your boots real tight Pack extra water Say goodbye to your Father Mother and sister alike Gather the men for the journey Plan out your course through the night Five days alone in the wild unknown Go now the time is right I left my heart at the top of the mountain Above all the Rivers and Streams From the whispering wind a new song sang within Singing "freedom" just let me be... Child of the wilderness Son of the stillness Peace now wherever you roam Footprints engrailed in the snow covered trail Guide us all safely back home We set out foot in the morning Made our way deep in the forrest Sweat-drops ensued - from the high sun at noon Tellin' tales of old former glory We made a fire in the evening To defrost our bodies with smoke Laughed in a haze as our socks caught ablaze... As we put our cold feet too close I left my heart at the top of the mountain Above all the Rivers and Streams From the whispering wind a new song sang within Singing "freedom" just let me be... Child of the wilderness Son of the stillness Peace now wherever you roam Footprints engrailed in the snow covered trail Guide us all safely back home Share now your heart with me Brother Tell me the struggles beneath In the shelter of these, moss covered trees This here is a safe place to speak Come now what may in our future Journey's and Peril's unknown... Footprints engrailed in the snow covered trail Will guide us all safely back home
