MELABBY - The Wanderer Lyrics

A lone wanderer
Whipped through life's storm
In a land of tears and shattered light, forlorn
His feet carry him away
From the ruins of his town
One last glance behind, as he leaves
His heart weighed down
He bears the burden of the past
Upon his shoulders, heavy and vast
But the horizon calls, a new promise
For the wanderer seeking peace
No borders to miss
A wanderer, seeking a place to call home
Through the dark of night and the morning's chrome
A wanderer, seeking a place to find
Where he can rebuild his dreams
In a stranger's mind
Through strange streets and unfamiliar alleyways
The traveller marches on, will find a way to adjust
Memories fade like a distant dream
As he encounters the unknown with great trust
Longing burns like fire deep in his heart
Seeking a fresh start, far from pain's rampart
Voices of the past whisper in his ear
But the wanderer knows, courage must never veer
In the realm of fear
In the silence of night
When all dreams cease
The wanderer hears the call of distance
And feels longing increase
Yet in his heart
Hope flickers like a star
A light on the horizon
Guiding him afar
A wanderer, seeking a place to call home
Through the dark of night and the morning's chrome
A wanderer, seeking a place to find
Where he can rebuild his dreams, in a stranger's mind
