Dan Fogelberg ~In honor of Earth Day ~ & 'PG' pic
The Wild Places
I was walking alone through the lofty san juans
With a heart full of light and a head full of songs
I was thinking of time and how much it will cost
To recapture the souls that we surely have lost
In the cities and towns there are millions who dream
But the traffic’s so loud that you can’t hear them scream
There’s a heaven on earth that so few ever find
Though the map’s in your soul and the road’s in your mind
So many mountains before us, so many rivers to cross
Where is the wisdom to bring back the vision we’ve lost
Can we gaze with the wonder of children into the deafening night
Has it gotten so dark that we cannot remember the light
When you sleep on the ground with the stars in your face
You can feel the full length of the beauty and grace
In the wild places man is an unwelcome guest
But it’s here that I’m found and it’s here I feel blessed
...and some green from my world today...
