[Verse 1] I followed the river where the mountains divide, Past the scattered stones and the changing tides. With the morning sun burning gold on the plain, I heard distant voices calling out my name. I crossed through valleys where the wild winds roam, And found forgotten roads that led me home. The stars were turning in a vast blue sea, And every mile revealed more of me. [Chorus] Take me where the wide winds carry, Take me where the waters run. Past the edge of every horizon, Toward the rising of another sun. Oh, I have traveled far, Yet there's so much left to see. The road goes on forever, And it calls me to be free. [Verse 2] I passed through cities swallowed by the sand, Where broken pillars marked a vanished land. The walls still held the colors of the past, Like distant memories too bright to last. A thousand years lay buried in the ground, Yet in the wind, their music still resounds. I stood beneath a sky of burning blue, And felt the world begin to open anew. Oh, I am moving, moving on, Through the night and toward the dawn. Oh, I am rising, rising high, Like a bird across the open sky. [Verse 3 ] Now the desert stretches out before my eyes, A thousand miles beneath the burning skies. I drink the rain from a passing storm, And follow the tracks where the wild horses run. There is a place I have yet to find, Somewhere beyond the reach of time. And though the road may turn and bend, I feel the journey has no end. [Final Chorus] Take me where the wide winds carry, Take me where the waters run. Past the edge of every horizon, Toward the rising of another sun. Oh, let the whole world turn, Let the distant mountains call. I've been searching for the open road, And I was born to travel on. [Outro] Carry me on, carry me on, Where the far horizon meets the dawn.
