Chorus: C - D - Em


I’m so far away from home
I’ve traveled alone through towns unknown
I climbed upon my steed
And rode away, my spirit free

I came upon a man
Who offered me everything I asked
He held the key to dreams
Lost long ago in the age of sleep

He led me to a place of mysteries
I was showered in gold and ecstasies
I thought less and less of home
And drowned myself in thoughts of gold

I was given a place to stay
There was nothing there that would turn me away
I had wealth beyond control
I was given more lovers than I could hold

All my desires were fulfilled
But I lacked something I couldn’t feel
Through all the lovers I had embraced
There wasn’t a soul, only a face

Will my family all forget
My presence there, shortly spent
I have lost my urge to roam
Now all of my dreams lead back home

And I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds
I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds
I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds

There’s a place in my heart for the
Valley of the Rising Winds

I passed through the gates
Of that old familiar place
All the people turned around
To see their lost brother found

Tears came to my eyes
I was foolish then not to realize
This land is my home, this land is my pride
This is where I was born, this is where I will die

And I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds
I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds
I’m going back home to the
Valley of the Rising Winds

There’s a place in my heart for the
Valley of the Rising Winds
