Kansas - Wheels lyrics

See the words appear on the wall There for every man who's standing tall This water's pure, the well is so deep The only treasure that a man can keep Miles to go, and I feel the weight Of these chains that I create As I climb to the top of the hill It draws me still And I can't look back The heart keeps on burning Oh, wheels, wheels, don't slow down My soul keeps on yearning Oh, wheels, wheels, roll me homeward bound I'm looking through the eyes of a child Like the innocent and unbeguiled From the east, and far to the west Soldiers conquer in a royal quest One by one, as the seasons change I press on in a world so strange As I climb to the top of the hill It draws me still And I won't look back The heart keeps on burning Oh, wheels, wheels, don't slow down My soul keeps on yearning Oh, wheels, wheels, roll me homeward bound We are marching in time To the reason and rhyme As the glory of youth starts to fade There's no burden to bear For a debt that is already paid The heart keeps on burning Oh, wheels, wheels, don't slow down My soul keeps on yearning Oh, wheels, wheels, roll me homeward bound
