Larry Bradfield Poet Lyric

Traveling Alone

I have walked  the desert
Sailed the sea alone
Climbed an Asian mountain
And heard a glacier moan

I have loved and lost
And then loved again
I remember lips
That smiled at me back then

Love was just a word
Back when the world was new
She was young and lovely
Those years were but a few

We talked of tomorrow
And things we could not know
Then suddenly it changed
We'd different paths to go

I have flown an airplane
Ridden many a steed
I have crossed broad rivers
And traveled my own speed

Love was just a word
Back when the world was new
She was young and lovely
Those years were but a few
