We Traveled So Far

I found myself wondering today

Why do some go and some stay

Do each of our hearts know their way

Through valleys of sorrow and tears

Across oceans of longing and years

And the sound of it all in my ears

I traveled

I traveled so far

I traveled so far to be here

And you with the blue in your eyes

The storms of life leave a few lines

And squinting you search for the signs

Of kindness, of love, of someone

To walk with in rain or in sun

Until then, life's hardly begun

You traveled

You traveled so far

You traveled so far to be here

It's worth it all learning at last

The future begins with the past

Step out of the shadow it casts

And let the sun shine on your shoes

Kick 'em off in the rain if you choose

There's nothing like nothing to lose

We traveled

We traveled so far

We traveled

We traveled

We traveled so far

We traveled so far to be here
