Netherlands Lyrics - Fogelberg Dan

High on this mountain 

The clouds down below 

I'm feeling so strong and alive 

From this rocky perch 

I'll continue to search 

For the wind 

And the snow 

And the sky 

I want a lover 

I want some friends 

And I want to live in the sun 

And I want to do all the things that I 

never have done. 

Sunny bright mornings 

And pale moonlit nights 

Keep me from feeling alone 

Now, I'm learning to fly 

And this freedom is like 

Nothing that I've ever known 

I've seen the bottom 

And I've been on top 

But mostly I've lived in between 

And where do you go 

When you get to the end of 

your dream? 

Off in the nether lands 

I heard a sound 

Like the beating of heavenly wings 

And deep in my brain 

I can hear a refrain 

Of my soul as she rises and sings 

Anthems to glory and 

Anthems to love and 

Hymns filled with early delight 

Like the songs that the darkness 

Composes to worship the light. 

Once in a vision 

I came on some woods 

And stood at a fork in the road 

My choices were clear 

Yet I froze with the fear 

Of not knowing which way to go 

One road was simple 

Acceptance of life 

The other road offered sweet peace 

When I made my decision 

My vision became my release.
