Wandering

Now that I'm wandering out and on my own

Take more than a family for me to call this place my home

A mother's ears hear a thousand miles so I do not make a sound

Walk inside my own shadow with my hands over my mouth

And be quiet

Now that the day is done and the sun is on its fall

Wonder as I wander, how am I alive at all

What did it take to get me here, what will it take to leave

Fall in love and then I hate everything I see

When I'm tired I hit the floor

When I'm upset I go to the bar

And there's nowhere, nothing, and no one more

As warm as the strength of your arms

Become what? Become what?

Become who you are

I remember you well beneath that silver bell

The one that you wore around your heart

Let us meet one day beneath that silver shade

The one that was there at the start

At the start

Now that I'm wandering out and on my own

Take more than a family for me to call this place my home
