Though fields and valleys keep us apart
I cross the great plains guided by my heart
It will take me to you, this I know
Through tempest, sandstorm, heat or snow
With each step I feel your heat
And I will be warmed when once we meet
I fight the elements with your love and devotion
It is your promised hand that keeps me in motion
Little I\'m afraid this man has to offer
But his body and soul, and the chance to grow softer
To leave behind the hardship that this life has made
And be by your side, where I wish to be laid.
