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
