Land of No Return

Through the veil I can see my family’s tears
I can feel the depth of sorrow as they mourn
For my body lies in ruin ‘neath a stand of Douglas Fir
And from their arms for mortal life I have been torn
But I lived strong and I loved deeply on the earth
I chose the road of righteousness and truth
And I held the girl that loved me; prayed for the one that gave me birth
As I smiled and bid farewell to my own youth
So let me fly again on unbreakable wings
We will meet again in the land beyond all dreams
And though my life is over there’s no need for you to mourn
There is peace here in the land of no return
So live your dreams for I am living beyond mine
I know now just how the mystery unfolds
Believe in God’s eternal plan and know that I’ll be fine
With the love of my life here for me to hold
And praise the land where I took my final breath
May those Salmon River Mountains ever stand
For I lived a life of freedom and I died a cowboy’s death
And there’s nothin' more to ask of any man
Repeat Chorus
