The Foxfire Suite Testo

I get caught up in the struggle and the strain
With my back against a stonewall
My finger in the dam
Losin¡Â¯ strength and goin¡Â¯ down again

And I take a look around me
My eyes can¡Â¯t find the sun
There¡Â¯s nothing wild as far as I can see
Then my heart turns to Alaska
And freedom on the run
I can hear her spirit callin¡Â¯ me

To the mountains, I can rest there
To the rivers, I will be strong
To the forest, I¡Â¯ll find peace there
To the wild country, where I belong

Oh, I know some times I worry
On worldly ways and means
And I can see the future killing me
On a misbegotten highway
Of prophecies and dreams
A road to nowhere and eternity

And I know it¡Â¯s just changes
Yes, and mankind marchin¡Â¯ on
I know we can¡Â¯t live in yesterday
But compared to what we¡Â¯re losin¡Â¯
And what it means to me
I¡Â¯d give my life and throw the rest away

To the mountains, I can rest there
To the rivers, I will be strong
To the forest, I¡Â¯ll find peace there
To the wild country, where I belong
To the wild country, where I belong
