Wanderlust
The birds glide, I don’t know why
It gives me reason to sing
So who am I? What can I bring?
The trees grow, the waters flow
To take us far from here
So who are we? Why do we fear?
In all the glories shown to us,
We must give in to our wanderlust
To make amends for wrongs we’ve done
Inspire the dreams, in everyone
The lambs leap, the willows weep
To show us we can dance and cry
Don’t live a lie; just ask why
The oceans latch, seashells laugh
There’s always an escape
To the martyr’s smile, on the sun’s sweet dial
In all the glories shown to us,
We must give in to our wanderlust
To make amends for wrongs we’ve done
Inspire the dreams, in everyone
Don’t let it fade,
Don’t hold it down
The sky is open for us now
Just let them fly,
Those hurts we keep
Inspire the heart, inspire the dream!
In all the glories shown to us,
We must give in to our wanderlust
To make amends for wrongs we’ve done
Inspire the dreams, in everyone
In everyone
Inspire the dreams, in everyone
*This song is a collaboration with my older brother, Robert, who was inspired by two hawks soaring around each other earlier today. Younger brother, David, implemented some sweet harmonies that makes this song really special! *
