Lyrics
Heartland
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's not the thought of leaving you
That brings the tears to my eyes
I walked alone I let the days go by
Under your blood red skies
With all the things that make a future
I wrote my name in your past
Brave young lions stand together
But setting suns don't ever last
Don't say that I abandon you
Don't say that I never tried
I walk along like a stateless man
So far from home
Heartland burning sand shining through
Heartland don't let them crucify you
When all the wars are over
And all the words have turned to sand
You will live forever
A silent wonder land
Don't say that I abandon you
Don't say that I never cried
I walk along like a stateless man
So far from home
Heartland burning sand shining through
Heartland I love you
