Track 8: My Pilgrimage

DOWNLOAD MP3

NOTES:

I feel as though I have shared an abbreviated version of this story a thousand times now. That almost 5 months ago, we moved out of our Oceanside apartment, packed our stuff into storage, and left.

What a trip it has been. What a trip indeed. A pilgrimage. A chance to go out and learn from others. Share stories and hear even more. To be inspired and hopefully somehow inspire along the way.

Autumn air has been our cure in so many ways...

LYRICS:

Well today is a brand new day, I'll start again
Open-eyed, I can see the sky open up for me
Here we are, you and me, we can see we're going somewhere
But where we go, I dunno, feel it out when we get there

Well yesterday, you could say, is just a blip on my screen
Follow me close, heel to toes, you'll see what I mean
Or maybe you won't or you shan't or you can't hear what I say
Either way, yeah or nay, gotta go, gotta leave this place

And the mysteries they follow me into the backroads
And the sunset comes to tuck me in; wake to the sparrows
The road becomes my home again if I need one
The earth becomes my bed; my light, the sun
Oh and I will follow...

Too many dreams, crazy schemes, for us just to sit here
Not that we know what's ahead, but we're dead in the water now
Home's not what we thought, what we bought, did we buy, I'm not so sure
But seasons change, rearrange, and autumn air has been our cure

And the mysteries they follow me into the backroads
And the sunset comes to tuck me in; wake to the sparrows
The road becomes my home again if I need one
The earth becomes my bed; my light, the sun
Oh and I will follow...

Please don't forget us while we're gone...

And the mysteries they're taking me down the backroads
And the sun is up to lead the way... east, I suppose
The trees becomes my travellin' friends cause I'll need one
The earth is now my bed; my light, the sun
Oh and I will follow...
