Wanderin' Heart

Hey there sweetheart,

Smile for me, I'm leaving soon

But I won't be gone too long

I promise I'll be home before summer's dawned.

 

My wanderlust is kickin' in,

I long for open roads again,

For clear blue skies and winding paths

Amid the mountaintops.

 

I can't stand being here much longer,

This concrete city can't make me stronger,

People going about their busy lives

All look like bees amongst their hives.

 

I just need to get away.

Underneath the moon I'll stray

Among the trees and rolling hills,

It's just a need I must fulfill.

 

But I'll come wanderin' home again

Telling stories of where I've been,

The things I've seen and people met,

There'll be some funny ones, I bet.

 

But for now, know my love is true,

And that I will come back to you.

I need to feel fresh air once more.

I love you. Don't forget to lock the door.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I need to go on a road trip.

When you can't do a big

When you can't do a big one....sometimes a little one suffices. Little ones have been holding me off for the past ten years. It has been way too long for me.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Sounds like a Plan.

Yea, that's what I'm thinking of doing. We'll see how that pans out.
