Drifter

From town to town he does go
Never for long, no-one to know
He wishes for peace yet to find
But no ties is he ready to bind

The Drifter comes into town
Looking for something to be found
He’s been looking for a while now
He questions reasons why, when and how

What is it he looks for?
Why does he hunger for knowledge more?
Where is he going and where will he end?
What is his journey on the path that bends?

The Drifter comes into town
Looking for something to be found
He’s been looking for a while now
He questions reasons why, when and how

Staying still was not for him
Going nowhere, nothing to gleam
In his heart he looks for something
He knows not what in his searching

The Drifter comes into town
Looking for something to be found
He’s been looking for a while now
He questions reasons why, when and how

This town he’s just in by the sea
Calms his soul, is this the place to be?
He looks as the waves roll to the beach
Maybe nature can him teach?

The Drifter comes into town
Looking for something to be found
He’s been looking for a while now
He questions reasons why, when and how

Too much rolls around in his head
Too many memories should be laid to bed
This journey, this quest he’s now on
Was meant to open his mind to correct all wrongs

The sun falls, melts into the sea
He watches with awe, at one he must be
Getting up he walks away
Another town tomorrow, another new day
