Echoes of the Wandering Stream

In the whisper of where the river bends in size I carved my names and shires I carved my name on ancient bark Underneath the endless sky, the wind, it carried tales of old Of lovers lost and dreams untold And in the quiet of the night I found my heart's own light Oh, wanderer, come wander free through fields of gold and memory The earth's soft song will guide you away And every dawn and every phrasing will sing true let sorrows flee For in this life we're wild and free By the hearth where shadows dance, an old man's voice would weave his lore Of mountains climbed and oceans crossed And doors that led to something Or his eyes like stars in twilight gleam Spoke of hopes and shattered dreams Yet through the ache, a warmth would rise Like morning dew and sunrise wise Oh, wanderer, come wander free through fields of gold and memory The earth's soft song will guide you away And every dawn and every phrasing will sing true let sorrows flee For in this life we're wild and free And when the storms begin to rage And doubts like thorns entwine the soul Remember roots that hold you fast The stories that make broken whole No path is straight No path is straight No journey clear But in the heart, the truth is near Oh, wanderer, come wander free through fields of gold and memory The earth's soft song will guide you away And every dawn and every phrasing will sing true let sorrows flee For in this life we're wild and free Oh wanderer come wander free through fields of gold and memory For in this life we're wild and free Oh, wanderer, come wander free through fields of gold and memory The earth's soft song will guide you away And every dawn and every phrasing will sing true let sorrows flee For in this life we're wild and free
