I Crossed the World

I crossed the world for glory I sailed the seas for love I knew not where I was going Or who I was thinking of I took off on every plain I could I sailed on every boat I knew not what you looked like I had no picture I could tote I wandered through the desserts Climbed the mountains high I looked out from every single peek But all I saw was sky Finally in a city One I felt unique At last I saw a woman The one I am sure I seek When we finally touched my sweet That is when I knew I crossed the world my darling I crossed it to find you

Maybe you should know this is a true story. I was living in northeast Ohio USA and met my wife and true love in Santiago, Chile
