WANDERER
Lyrics & Music: © Kerstin Dröge, 04. March 2001

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You have touched my soul more than I ever expected ...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You minstrel of a foreign land
I can only sail your seas, you see
And though our lives can never mend
Your songs are lingering in me

The minstrel is a wanderer,
I could never keep his pace
The minstrel sings for many souls
Not made to stay in any place.

So I return to my safe haven
To greet a more familiar face

To whom I've sung a thousand times
But that was many years ago
I rarely sing for him today
Yet he does always let me roam

For I'm as well a wanderer
Not on the land but over seas
Come let us share our thoughts and tales
And let your heart reach out for me.

Although my longing pulls me away
I should always return from the sea.

You minstrel of a foreign land
I can only sail your seas, you see
And though our lives can never mend
Your touch is lingering in me
