Wheels - Kansas

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

(Chorus)

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

(Chorus)

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

(Chorus)
