| The Journey ~ Music by Holly Reed ~ Lyrics from Ben Gunn's poem "A Western Tour" From Kansas in the early spring, I left one sunny day Headed for the golden West, how far my journey lay On Kansas River's southern side, a range of hills stands high Beneath the sun at bright noontide, it greets the passers by Farther on as one goes through where but few houses stand No hills no trees obstruct the view, a level treeless land Above the sea almost a mile, I breathed the mountain air Stroll around and all the while reigned quiet everywhere And as I pass through dale and glen, I peer through dismal light To see what I had never seen before, a rare and awesome sight The yellow man, the red man, the white man and the black Together on one platform stand beside the railroad track And then I reach the ocean, walk in and dive beneath Mountain waves above me leap as I gaze into the deep And Kansas seemed a world away as I breathe the salty air Walk along the sandy beach, the sea breeze in my hair |
