I left a path behind me
To follow this one instead
No longer will I go backward
I’m forging my way, straight ahead
A journey I’ve long since forgotten
It’s time to find me once again
Traveling on, there’s no looking back
I already know where I’ve been

This rock is now my home, a place
I travel on, through outer space
A flight to galaxies, still unknown
Adventures, by myself, alone
Standing in the open air
I see Jupiter, floating there
Watching me, a leery eye
As I go quietly, drifting by
In awe of all the mysteries
On this planet, I can see
Ribbons of waves across, a band
Could I ever walk this land?
Shall I journey far across?
And glide, just like an albatross
In an atmosphere, unconfined
Perhaps, a chance to just unwind
Or should I stay here, bide my time
In this universe, quiet sublime

A crooked wooden path climbs high
Over mountains, reaching sky
Disappearing into the night
Shall I travel toward the light?
Do I chance what lies ahead?
Or do I stay behind, instead
Afraid of what could be the end
Not knowing what’s around the bend
Shall I take a chance or two?
Yes! That’s exactly what I’ll do
Striding, over faded boards
Creaking as I step, go forward
Running, to catch the rising sun
Knowing my journey has just begun

In the cool of night
A lonesome whistle exhales
Another journey’s end

I will fly away, on a feathered ride
Disguise myself, so I can hide
Leave the turmoil, journey where
Golden suns caress my hair,
Fill my lungs with fragrant air,
Hoping I can find me there
Cast my worries to the side
As tranquility and I collide
