Dorinda McBride - Wanderlust Lyrics

Born with a spirit like a kite in a spin
Searching to become one with the wind
Harnessed for now by peers and peeps
Called crazy for wanting a simple dream
To monetize from nature's toys
Of rivers and trees and skies to enjoy
To sit with the moon on a quiet dock
To be like the sun that chases no clock
They called it her wanderlust
Said keep in check your dream
But look who's flying high now
With the wind beneath her wings
Through the summer's heat and winter's burr
The road is home to her
The warmth of fall, new life in spring
This girl explores everything
Memories from such a gifted life
Will far outweigh the sacrifice
A house, two cars, and picket fence
Hot meals, soft beds, shampoo and rinse
Money, holidays, a life in check
Feels organized and too complex
She'll keep what God gives to her each day
A life unchained lived in her own way
They called it her wanderlust
Said, keep in check your dream
But look who's flying high now
With the wind beneath her wings
Through the summer's heat and winter's burr
The road is home to her
The warmth of fall, new life in spring
This girl explores everything
Maybe one day kids will run through her yard
Counting the days til they follow their hearts
To the path of a mom's younger days
Simple and free in every way
They called it her wanderlust
Said, keep in check your dream
But look who's flying high now
With the wind beneath her wings
Through the summer's heat and winter's burr
The road is home to her
The warmth of fall, new life in spring
This girl explores everything
Maybe one day kids will run through her yard
Counting the days til they follow their hearts
To the path of a mom's younger days
Simple and free in every way
They called it her wanderlust
Said, keep in check your dream
But look who's flying high now
With the wind beneath her wings
Through the summer's heat and winter's burr
The road is home to her
The warmth of fall, new life in spring
This girl explores everything
