TO THE WILD

I want to regain the sense of wonder
I must have possessed when I was a child
Before the poisons and the madness took hold
Before the years made me grow so cold
I will return my soul to the wild

I want to stop running and listen to my heartbeat
And count my blessings once in a while
Feel Mother Nature in my soul
The summer heat and the winter cold
I will return my soul to the wild

I’ll become the Earth
I’ll become the oceans and the starry skies
And I will test my worth
Stand on the shore and try to turn the tide

I’ll empower my spirit and be part of everything
And I’ll stare at the moon and once again feel beguiled
The velvet night and the blazing day
I don’t need a map because I know the way
I will return my soul to the wild
