Raido is the rune that reminds us what matters in the journey, not the destination. Adventure calls...

lyrics

A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future

Some may choose to stay near a hearth well kept
I do not deny them their safety
I was not born for a simple life
The road calls my blood; I answer bravely

A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future

Shiny Mane lights my way by day
Mane of Frost will guide my night
I journey far, living by my wits
Rewarded in knowing I chose right

A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future

Many the faces well met on the way
Some I've sadly left behind
I cannot stay, this momentum drives me
Onward to see what I can find

A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future

The rhythm of life with a dancer's grace
I strive to stay in control
I care not where I arrive at the end
'Tis the journey that makes me whole

A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future
A swift black horse pounds the flagstone path
Astride I ride toward adventure
I'll not stay safe behind the halls of home
When out there lies all my future
