A better life begins

Where I go is where the wind blows,

Where the clouds go racing by,

Where the mountains meet the heavens,

Where the tall trees touch the sky.

Where I go is where the tide flows,

Where the rocks are washed by foam,

Where the sandy beaches glisten,

Where footprints have no hold.

Where I go is where the moon shines,

Where the mermaids bask in play,

Where voices whisper 'time to leave,'

Where love begs me to stay.

Where I go is where the stars shine,

Where the waters draw me in,

Where the gentle waves wash over me,

Where a better life begins.
