Eternal wanderer

You used to find me wondering on the great road of life
Never happy in one place for long.
For I was the eternal wanderer.

It seems like I was forever driving by,
Forever on the wing
My heart and soul finding no peace in any one place.

There I go again on my own
Going down the only road I’ve ever know
Don’t know where I’m going, only where I’ve been

Coast to coast, sky to sky
Going from hell to hell.
Alone.

Holding onto hope
Dreaming of a better time and place
Reaching for the love that seemed so far

I always thought love was giving
The more I gave the less I got
So I lost the will to give

A ray of hope drew me to your horizon
The dawn bathing me in glorious warmth
Opening up my shell and getting into my heart.

Now I have found a home in your arms
Warmed by the heat of your soul
I wander alone no more.


(Verse 3 adapted from Whitesnake - On my own)
