What am I?
Stronger than you
That you don't think like I do
These days
More than in youth
I keep thinking about you
All of me feared the wild things in you
The truth is that I never forgot you
Long live the wilderness way
The high cloud
The long days
Long live perpetual light
Remember
Wherever
You wander
When you sail
Over the sea
Do you dream of the new world
Can you see
Clear mountain burns
The deer in the north woods
All of me feared the dark depths of the ocean
There's no coming back there is only going
Farewell to the high hills of snow
The green glens
The rivers
Farewell to the people I know
All gathered
And moving
Long live the wilderness way
The high cloud
The long days
Long live perpetual light
Remember
Wherever
You wander
Farewell to the high hills of snow
The green glens
The rivers
Farewell to the people I know
All gathered
And moving
Long live the wilderness way
The high cloud
The long days
Long live perpetual light
Remember
Wherever
You wander
