Sedona 03:59
CHORUS From the Red Rocks of Sedona to the streets of San Francisco The spirit of the pioneer, the brightest and the best From the snowy slopes of Rainier to the California redwoods It's the power and the glory of the West Driving down a desert highway, red rock towers passing by Feel the veins of energy that course beneath a cloudless sky Golden sun illuminates the valley of the wild and free The splendor of her boulevards, her styles and creativity Early rain, a misty curtain pulling back across the sound Tales and legends cast their magic over the majestic ground From the depths of life you can be lifted by a helping hand To see a new dimension spreading out across the rolling land Standing on a porch at morning, song rings through the mountain air Sunrise burns off fog to light a cabin built with love and care Climbing up the twisting roads how challenging the path may seem Faith and hope will lead you on to reach the summit of your dreams

When I first came aboard your ship all minds were closed to me No single member of the crew saw my ability Until I brought you to a place fantastic, strange, and new Then you began to understand the things that I could do I saw that you had capabilities you barely know The places that lie in your reach if you let your mind go I'll take you on the journey through those far and distant lands A special destiny is yours if you just take my hand CHORUS: If you open your eyes to the things you could be I will take you a place that few others will see If you open your mind; set your thoughts running free And you travel with me Come travel with me First on your own you set out; your horizons aimed to spread You could not see the dangers or the trials that lay ahead The one who was most dear to you was lost to you, you feared From deep inside you called for me; I heard and I appeared I was the one who reassured that there was still a way Together we both worked as one to open up the gate Your journey has now started, you've begun to realize A new world is within your reach; the power within you lies Once more your path led to me as you flew among the stars Now poised to make the jump to a dimension without bars The journey they had planned for you was not your destined way From out of swirling forces you leapt to another plane You did not know that it was me; I came to you disguised With my help and my urging you found just where your heart lies At last your mind is open full, your spirit's running free You stand prepared to take my hand and travel space with me
