Mountains of Oregon
I'm flying west
Backward in history and time
To a life that I once left behind
I see you waiting
By the baggage at the airport
Prolonging another goodbye
When duty calls
Me towards the ocean
On a ship that sails
Upon the seven seas
Oh I miss home but it's not the same
My friends and my family
Are no longer the ones
Watching over me
There's not much left
For me here except the trees
And the mountains of Oregon
But since then I've left
And I am born again
Now I face the facts
As I press on into the attack
I'm never going back
What way to express
How the concrete has been broken
Upon which I was able to stand
I sometimes caress
Such strange thoughts and notions
That adventure lies ahead
When duty calls me
With such strong convictions
Like the man who willingly died for me
Oh I miss home but it's not the same
My friends and my family
Are no longer the ones
Watching over me
There's not much left
For me here except the trees
And the mountains of Oregon
But since then I've left
And I am born again
Now I face the facts
As I press on into the attack
I'm never going back
Backward in history and time
To a life that I once left behind
I see you waiting
By the baggage at the airport
Prolonging another goodbye
When duty calls
Me towards the ocean
On a ship that sails
Upon the seven seas
Oh I miss home but it's not the same
My friends and my family
Are no longer the ones
Watching over me
There's not much left
For me here except the trees
And the mountains of Oregon
But since then I've left
And I am born again
Now I face the facts
As I press on into the attack
I'm never going back
What way to express
How the concrete has been broken
Upon which I was able to stand
I sometimes caress
Such strange thoughts and notions
That adventure lies ahead
When duty calls me
With such strong convictions
Like the man who willingly died for me
Oh I miss home but it's not the same
My friends and my family
Are no longer the ones
Watching over me
There's not much left
For me here except the trees
And the mountains of Oregon
But since then I've left
And I am born again
Now I face the facts
As I press on into the attack
I'm never going back
