Hi
2
Trader
3
Trader sailed a jeweled crown
4
Humanity rowed the way
5
Exploring to command more land
6
Scheming how to rule the waves
7
Trader spied a virgin plain
8
And named it for velvet robes
9
Wrote home declaring
10
"There's a place where totally folks are free"
11
Happily completely
12
Nourishment fills the prairies and the hillsides
13
And animals stalk the mountains and the seaside
14
And fish abound the lakes and birds the skies
15
Signed sincerely
16
Trader found the jeweled land
17
Was occupied before he came
18
By humans of a second look
19
Who couldn't even write their names, shame
20
Trader said they're not as good
21
As folks who wear velvet robes
22
Wrote home again and asked, "Please help
23
Their breasts I see, they're not like me"
24
Banish them from our prairies and our hillsides
25
Clear them from our mountains and our seaside
26
I want them off our lakes so please reply
27
Signed sincerely
28
Trader he got the crown okay
29
Cleared humanity from his way
30
He civilized all he saw
31
Making changes every single day, say
32
Shops sprang over the prairies and the hillsides
33
Then roads cut through the mountains to the seaside
34
The other kind fled to hide, by and by
35
And so sincerely cried
36
Making it softly
37
Like the evening sea, trying to be
38
Making it go creating it gently
39
Like a morning breeze, a life of ease
40
Eyes that see beyond tomorrow
41
Through to the time without hours
42
Passing the eden of flowers
43
Reason to live
44
Embracing together
45
Like the merging streams, crying dreams
46
Making it full begging intently
47
For a slight reprieve, a night of ease
48
Hands to touch beyond the sorrow
49
On to the force without power
50
Piercing the crust of the tower
51
Reason to live
52
Hoping like a budding rose
53
Humbling shows
54
Making it struggling lonely
55
Like a desert field
56
Break the seal, make it real
57
Ears to hear beyond the showers
58
On to the suns of tomorrows
59
Burning the flesh of all sorrows
60
Reason to live
61
Reason to continue
62
Reason to go on
63
Reason to live
64
Reason to live
65
Reason to live
66
Reason to live
