Lyrics
Sweet Destination
North to the place where I wanna be
North to the one who sets me free
And when the next sun rises I?ll be gone from here
There are no surprises left, where there used to be such fear
And my destination is etched in gold
And the journey?s distance is never to be told
Sweet destination, carry me home
For my eyes have seen, hearts of stone
Souls of granite there are all around
Sweet destination, homeward bound
Oh please guide me safely to that land of dreams
For the unknown future is never what it seems
Make a snowy mantle, fashion a cloak of green
In my eyes make a vision so I never can be seen
Blow the wind and thunder, make a summer breeze
In my eyes make a vision that only the wizard sees
Sweet destination, carry me home
For my eyes have seen, hearts of stone
Souls of granite there are all around
Sweet destination, homeward bound
