I saw the flowers on the track And knew no going back To the place where it begun The life when I was young [verse] Where the rivers run Is where I'm heading to A home much better for For both me and you [verse] The time I'd seen before Now I had given more No going back at all To the man I must ignore [bridge] Now an open door To everything in store On a distant shore [verse] When I heard the call I was feeling very poor I had wanted more To know what it was for [chorus] I saw the flowers on the track And knew no going back To the place where it begun The life when I was young [bridge] It seemed a wild idea A place without a tear A place not filled with fear A place both far and near [verse] I had given it my all Before I had the fall When I'd tried to stand up tall I had lost it all [verse] A story sometimes told Of a land filled with gold Where I'm heading to When my time is through [verse] Where I'm going when This time on earth does end When the young and the old Enjoy life to behold [chorus] I saw the flowers on the track And knew no going back To the place where it begun The life when I was young [verse] Where the rivers run Is where I'm heading to A home much better for For both me and you [verse] The time I'd seen before Now I had given more No going back at all To the man I must ignore [bridge] Now an open door To everything in store On a distant shore [verse] When I heard the call I was feeling very poor I had wanted more To know what it was for [chorus] I saw the flowers on the track And knew no going back To the place where it begun The life when I was young [bridge] It seemed a wild idea A place without a tear A place not filled with fear A place both far and near [verse] I had given it my all Before I had the fall When I'd tried to stand up tall I had lost it all [verse] A story sometimes told Of a land filled with gold Where I'm heading to When my time is through [verse] Where I'm going when This time on earth does end When the young and the old Enjoy life to behold
