i have traveled many nights without much sleep
from the Valley of Fear to an Ocean so deep

the Jungle of Lies was filled with quicksand
and the Desert of Truth led me to the Promise Land

a land where promises are made, but sometimes broken
and many words become lost before being spoken

the Ocean of Desire was merely an illusion
and the Highway to Heaven led me to the State of Confusion

the Sea of Trust was too dangerous and wide
i searched high and low for the Mountain of Pride

the Bridge of Tears was too narrow to be crossed
the Forest of Destiny is where i got lost

the Pasture of Peace was nowhere to be found
and the Tree of Life had fallen to the ground

i have swam an endless journey through many rivers and streams
searching for the vision that puts the comfort in my dreams

i am steady wandering aimlessly with a tear in my eye
hoping that a prinecess will hear my "One Last Cry"
