Oh, there's a river that winds on forever I'm gonna see where it leads Oh, there's a mountain that no man has mounted I'm gonna stand on the peak Out there's a land that time don't command Wanna be the first to arrive No time for pondering why I'm a-wandering Oh, while we're both still alive To the ends of the earth would you follow me? There's a world that was meant for our eyes to see To the ends of the earth would you follow me? If you won't I must say my goodbyes to thee Oh, there's an island where all things are silent I'm gonna whistle a tune Oh, there's a desert, the size can't be measured I'm gonna count all the dunes Out there's a world that calls for me, girl Heading out into the unknown Wayfaring strangers and all kinds of danger Please don't say I'm going alone To the ends of the earth would you follow me? There's a world that was meant for our eyes to see To the ends of the earth would you follow me? If you won't I must say my goodbyes to thee I was a-ready to die for you, baby Doesn't mean I'm ready to stay What good is living a life you've been given If all you do is stand in one place? I'm on a river that winds on forever Follow 'til I get where I'm going Maybe I'm heading to die but I'm still gonna try I guess I'm going alone
