Richard Zihan Peng - Wanderer Lyrics

If you asked her where she's going she'll say she doesn't know
If you kissed her on the head she'd close her eyes
Her name is like a flower that only blooms at night
Her hands are folded tightly on the table
Sleeps but she's tired
Talks but she lies
Try to hold her close but away she flies
Built a wall so high that even God has to stand on his toes
To see the other half of the skies
Spends one more night on her own
One more night then she's gone
If you sang her favorite song she wouldn't turn around
Decided nothing new is worth her time
Somewhere in her dreams there's a voice she used to know
A friend who said she'd always have a home
Feels like she's a ghost the way she passes through this town
The world is always changing but she stands her ground
Never met a soul she says worth a second glance
In the winter she says nothing much at all
Lily and rose
Silver and gold
Offer her the universe but she's still cold
Wandered off so far that even Saturn has to squint to see
The island where she sleeps beneath the stars
Spends one more night on her own
One more night then she's gone
And what do you hope to find
Wandering the world like a cloud in the sky
Running away from a storm that will never arrive
Holding you's like holding water
Slips away right when I got her
Mother Earth's one lonely daughter
Come home now
Mmm come home now
Ohhh Ohhh
Ohhh Oh
Ohhh Ohhh
Ohhh Oh
Earth and the moon
Laughter and dreams
Someday she'll have found her way
'Cross all seven seas
Dinner's in the kitchen
And the key's right where you left it
When you disappeared those many years ago
