Like a thunder in the mountains And the wind whistling through the woods Like the echo in the valley And the eagle chasing the cliff in its shadow Just a hunch in a heartbeat Winter breaks into this path I'm a-wandering Far in the east the dark creeps up on me West it calls me out to be free Hold on to your footsteps My dear companion And listen to the sorrows Of the Riders Of The Canyon Smothered bonfire, smoky witness The devious dance of another loner Steel in the gold a weep in my soul I'm clinging to the old promises I broke Hold on to your footsteps My dear companion And listen to the sorrows Of the Riders Of The Canyon Hold on to your footsteps My dear companion And listen to the sorrows Of the Riders Of The Canyon
