Analysis of WANDERING WAYFARER
Across The Land & Misty Sea, Adventures Are Awaiting Me
Tho You May Roam On Land & Sea, Round The Bend & Thru The Trees, Up The Lane or Down The Dale, Round The Curve, A View To See, Tho The Pounding of The Ocean's Surf, Rallys Round Again & Welcome Me, For One More Voyage . A Trip To See Surprises Way Beyond The Deep Blue Sea, Oh The Pounding of the Oceans Gate Rally Round & Welcome Me, I Think Each Day As I Arise & Want Adventure By My Side, & As I Roam Both Near & Far, Home Is Where I Long To Be, But When I'm There a Day or So , I Look Out to the Mighty Sea or Walk Upon a Sandy Beach, The Seagulls Beckon Out To Me, They Glide & Soar & Then Exclaim , Pack Your Bags & Venture Out, For Surely There Is More To See, I See the Lifeguards Sitting There , Alas Enjoying That Beautiful Sea, It Makes Me Think of What I Found Strolling One Day Along The Sea, A Treasure Map Was Found by Me, Buried Deep in Sand by That Balmy Sea, Pointing Out a Path To Go ..Venture Out Just One More Time & Find the Prized Buried by The Sea. So I Packed My Bags & Out to Sea & Heard the Ocean Liners Bell Sounding Out to Me. The Lonely Sea is Calling Me , Oh So Deep & Full of Mystery ! & Tho I Can't Seem to Stay in One Place Seldom More Than a Day ! I Try so Hard To Be Content, But Just In Case You Haven't Guessed by Now,
A Wandering Wayfarer ,.... I'll Always Be !
