I remember a place, where mountains divide.
And I stood at the edge of the canyon so wide
I saw so many years, ten thousand before

When the first light of dawn heats up the dew
And the drops shine like diamonds where sunlight shines through
My heart can rest if just for a while
And my tired feet can walk for another mile

Chorus
