For the sake of my heart I am going
To wander the mountains where I was born
For the sake of finding my way again
I must be in this place aloneWhere there's healing in the sun when she rises
And forgiveness when she settles back down in the hills
There's strength in the love of the living
And in knowing how to be stillHave you ever stood at the mountains
As they change from blue to gray to gold
Watching the painter's perfection
Oh, what a sight to behold
Can I show you a place in the quiet
Where you can hear the wind humming through the trees
The rustle of weed that is dyin'
And the gravel beneath your feetLet's turn to the fire through the evening
And watch as it changes the world to coal
Like the memories we keep on fightin'
They burn as they unfold
Where there's healing in the sun when she rises
And forgiveness when she settles back down in the hills
There's strength in the love of living
And in knowing how to be stillOh, there's strength in the love of living
And in knowing how to be still
