Reading departure signs in some big airport
Reminds me of the places I’ve been
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure
Makes me want to go back again

Anywhere I roam
Where I lay my hat is home
And the earth becomes my throne
I adapt to the unknown
Under wandering stars I’ve roamed
By myself but not alone

From Bissau to Palau - in the shade of Avalon,
From Fiji to Tiree and the Isles of Ebony,
From Peru to Cebu hear the power of Babylon,
From Bali to Cali - far beneath the Coral Sea.
From the North to the South,
Ebudc into Khartoum,
From the deep sea of clouds
To the island of the moon,
Carry me on the waves
To the lands I’ve never been,
Carry me on the waves
To the lands I’ve never seen.

I’m gonna write another traveling song
About all the billion highways and the cities at the break of dawn

See the pyramids along the Nile
Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle
Just remember, darling, all the while
You belong to me

There’s too many things that I haven’t done yet
Too many sunsets
I haven’t seen
You can’t waste the day wishing it’d slow down

One day I’ll fly away and take you with me
We’ll leave it all behind and start it new

I traveled the world
Looking for understanding
Of the times that we live in
Hunting and gathering first hand information
Challenging definitions of sin
I traveled the world
Looking for lovers
Of the ultimate beauty
But never settled in
I am a Wanderlust King!

So you’ve come to this bridge
In an unfamiliar land
You know it’s a bridge you are going to walk on
And the only thing you know is
Everything you know
Will do you no good from here on
And the day that you spin
From your little cocoon
Well, you can’t be prepared
For the beauty you’ll find there
And you will find beauty
In the toughest of places
And I will be thinking of you out there
- “Beauty”, Shaye
