i saw you walking in the morning by the river
i saw you turn your head to the mountains
i saw your eyes, i saw the longing
as you looked that way
and i knew you'd go back to the mountains
some day
chorus:
so i said, take me with you
oh now take me with you
when you go away
i said take me with you
oh now take me with you
take me with you when you go
cuz i know i've been too long
in this city of mankind
and i know that i am ready
i am ready to go back to the wild
and i know that i've been hungry
i've been hungry for some fun
and i know that all i'm doing here
is just getting that job done
chorus
i don't need you to carry me
i don't need you to hold my hand
i just wanna walk beside you
into that green and beautiful land
and you don't have to worry
about the one that's coming along
cuz i walk very quietly
and i am very very very very
very very very strong
chorus
