The Wild Places – Dan Fogelberg – letras

I was walking alone through the lofty San JuansWith a heart full of light and a head full of songsI was thinking of time and how much it will costTo recapture the souls that we surely have lostIn the cities and towns there are millions who dreamBut the traffic’s so loud that you can’t hear them screamThere’s a heaven on earth that so few ever findThough the map’s in your soul and the road’s in your mindSo many mountains before us, so many rivers to crossWhere is the wisdom to bring back the vision we’ve lostCan we gaze with the wonder of children into the deafening nightHas it gotten so dark that we cannot remember the lightWhen you sleep on the ground with the stars in your faceYou can feel the full length of the beauty and graceIn the wild places man is an unwelcome guestBut it’s here that I’m found and it’s here I feel blessed
