1
The wild geese are dancing in the ripples of the morn
2
My wanderlust is born
3
I've got to follow them wherever they may lead
4
For I am just a sailor on a ship across the land
5
Let me hold your hand
6
To bid farewell, so I can not go to my knees
7
But I'll be back again no matter where I go
8
For it's only love that frees the fire for burning
9
Then I'll take you in my arms and tell you all I know
10
As I sing the early song of my returning
11
The weary world is waiting for ambition to be played
12
Now young and not afraid
13
I've got to challenge every chalice that I know
14
My eager ears are listening for the singing of the sign
15
Deeper are the lines
16
Upon the face that finds reflections in the road
17
Yes, I'll be back again no matter where I go
18
For it's only love that frees the fire for burning
19
Then I'll take you in my arms and tell you all I know
20
As I sing the changing song of my returning
21
My drifting days prepare me to do battle with the night
22
A phantom of the fight
23
I've got conquer all the courage of my fears
24
The answer lies in limbo and the harvest will be hard
25
But sacred are the scars
26
That leave their mark on the fast dissolving years
27
Yes, I'll be back again no matter where I go
28
For it's only love that frees the fire for burning
29
Then I'll take you in my arms and tell you all I know
30
As I sing the growing song of my returning
31
Time must have her victory, it's that I've always known
32
But I won or lost alone
33
And when a voice calls out, "There's someone you must meet"
34
With every strength remaining I will suffer one more scene
35
I'll gather all my dreams
36
And with my final breath I'll lay them at your feet
37
Yes, I'll be back again no matter where I go
38
For it's only love that frees the fire for burning
39
Then I'll take you in my arms and tell you all I know
40
As I sing the final song of my returning
