As I chase that evening sun towards my home, 

Headed up the canyon all alone, 

Worries are behind me fade to black, 

I got my windows down, city to my back. 



Quiet Contemplation, 

a few minutes to unwind. 

River's got me hypnotized 

and it slows my busy mind.



I know what's waiting for me up around the next bend; 

I'm up the canyon headed home again.



The sun is sinking low down in the west; 

another working day is put to the test. 

At every turn the air grows cooler as I climb,

up the canyon I feel better every time. 

Quiet Contemplation, 

a few minutes to unwind. 

River's got me hypnotized 

and I love to smell the pines

Tomorrow brings another day of working

'Till I'm up the canyon headed home again!



The river cuts a steady course, 

from years of heading' seaward. 

Follow that canyon back upstream. 

The rivers song is pure and true,

it never ages. 

It's as timeless as a dream.



I know what's waiting for me up around the next bend, 

I'm up the canyon heading' home again!
