I Am Going To The West lyrics
In this fair land i ll stay no more
here labor is in vain
I ll seek the mountains far away
andleave the fertile plain
Where waves of grass and oceans roam
into infinity
I stand ready by the shore
to cross the inland sea.
I am going to the west
you say you will not go me
you turn your eyes away
you say you will not follow me
no matter what I say
I am going to the west
I am going to the west
I will jorney to the place
that was shaped by heaven s hand
I will build for me a bow
where angel s footprints mark the land
where castle rocks and towers high
kneel to valleys wide and green
all my thoughts are turned to you
my waking hope, my sleeping dream
I am going to the west
you say you will not go me
you turn your eyes away
you say you will not follow me
no matter what I say
I am going to the west
I am going to the west
And when sun gives way to moon
and silver starlight fills the sky
in the arms of these last hills
is where I m bound to lie
wind my blanket earth my bed
my canopy a tree
willows by the riverside
will whisper me to sleep
I am going to the west
you say you will not go me
you turn your eyes away
you say you will not follow me
no matter what I say
I am going to the west
I am going to the west
I am going to the west
I am going to the west
