Oh I'd rather go and journey
|
Where the diamond crescent's glowing and
|
Run across the valley
|
Beneath the sacred mountain
|
And Wander through the forest
|
Where the trees have leaves of prisms
|
And break the light in colors
|
That no-one knows the names of
|
And when it's time I'll go and wait
|
Beside a legendary fountain
|
Till I see your form reflected
|
In its clear and jeweled waters
|
And if you think I'm ready
|
You may lead me to the chasm
|
Where the rivers of our vision
|
Flow into one another
|
I will watch her dive beneath
|
The white cascading waters
|
She may beg she may plead
|
She may argue with her logic
|
And mention all the things I'll lose
|
That really have no value
|
In the end she will surely know
|
I wasn't born to follow
|
