The Alchemist Lyrics

From the fields of Spain a shepherd's call

To find the treasure to risk it all

A dream of gold a tale untold

He sets his sights on distant shores

Through desert sands and foreign lands

He walks the path where few have dared

But the journey's more than what he seeks

It's in the lessons in every peak

The Alchemist's way through fire and fear

Turns lead to gold makes truth clear

In every step in every trial

He finds the wisdom in each mile

He meets the king the stones in hand

A crystal merchant with dreams so grand

But it's the alchemist who shows the way

To turn within to find the day

The desert's vast but so's the soul

In every grain the universe whole

He learns to speak the world's true tongue

Where love and fear and fate are sung

The Alchemist's way through fire and fear

Turns lead to gold makes truth clear

In every step in every trial

He finds the wisdom in each mile

Life's a journey not just the end

It's in the breaks it's where we mend

The treasure's not just in the chest

It's in the heart it's in the quest

You gotta turn the lead to gold

It's in the spirit not in what you hold

The Alchemist knows it's all inside

In every choice in every stride

At the pyramids the truth is laid

The treasure's there but so's the shade

It's not just gold it's what you've learned

The wisdom gained the peace earned

He sees the signs the omens true

The world conspires to help him through

But in the end it's clear to see

The treasure's found in being free

The Alchemist's way through fire and fear

Turns lead to gold makes truth clear

In every step in every trial

He finds the wisdom in each mile
