Red Rock

He'd never been on the road
He'd never been to the city
Now he's on his way
He leaves today
The cautious man is ready

Don't go in the water
Don't go into space
Settle down and stay around
And keep a steady pace

A determined man
A determined land
The wandering man
The wandering land

His shoes had worn a path
Through dusty fields and ash
His thoughts were miles ahead

No wheels to turn
No bridges burned
Just footprints in his stead

A determined man
A determined land
The wandering man
The wandering land

Don't go in the water
Don't go into space

Buildings draw horizons
Draw lines upon his face
New feelings now arising
Almost in his place

Almost in a new land
A place no longer dream
No mountains left to conquer
Nothing in between

A determined man
A determined land
The wandering man
The wandering land
