This world is full of places I'd like to go
These lands are full of life and love I'd like to know
These hands were made to weather, build, and climb, and war
I'll stand in open country and I'll sit on forest floor
Oh, where does the river flow?
To the ocean wide
Oh, how does the moon grow?
To the ocean tide
And I feel the ocean deep inside
My heart it beats for a pasture, cool and free
And I sing the song of the meadowlark
and the hum of the leaves in the breeze
My skin cries for a different feel from a distant land
Where the wild thrives and the beauty sighs
with a sound so far from man
Oh, where's the point of the highest earth?
It's the mountain peak
Oh, where's the taste of the cleanest drink?
It's the mountain stream
And I feel the mountains calling me
Hear a far away calling
Listen to unknown voices
Look off to the strangest distance
Meet me where the path does end
Oh, where does the river flow?
To the ocean wide
Oh, how does the moon grow?
To the ocean tide
And I feel the ocean deep inside
Oh, where's the point of the highest earth?
It's the mountain peak
Oh, where's the taste of the cleanest drink?
It's the mountain stream
And I feel the mountains calling me
