Traveler or Wanderer Words by Douglas Heyes Jr. Traveler or Wanderer It’s pretty much the same After 7 lonely years Tryin’ to make my name I feel what you’re feeling I know what you’re concealing No secret is unknown to me Your weakness is a home to me. You might think you know me But I can say for sure One old weary traveler Knows just where you were 7 years ago today Lost and found along the way Came The One That Has No Name You and I are not the same CHORUS: Traveler or Wanderer Hear the Four Winds blow Outbound Soul the Outlander From a long, long time ago When you are the Traveler You know what I know When you are the Wanderer I know that you must go Take a walk down through the dark Set a fire from a spark River ride way down inside Sunburned hide and old Birchbark You can run but you can’t hide Icy River, deep and wide Pedal steel and metal slide Promise on the other side Raise your arms up to the sky Learn to sing before you cry Spread your wings and try to fly Never have to say goodbye After all is said and done You might find the day will come When everything goes back to One Your new life has just begun CHORUS: Traveler or Wanderer Hear the Four Winds blow Outbound Soul the Outlander From a long, long time ago When you are the Traveler You know what I know When you are the Wanderer I know that you must go Will you leave a legacy They will not forget? Can you ever set them free To die and resurrect? Will they see the messages You carved into a tree? Guiding them along their way From here to eternity Somewhere out there is your home You must go there all alone For your sins you must atone When you come before the throne You will know the way to go And which way the river flows A brand new morning waits for you. To open Heaven’s Gate for you. CHORUS: Traveler or Wanderer Hear the Four Winds blow Outbound Soul the Outlander From a long, long time ago When you are the Traveler You know what I know When you are the Wanderer I know that you must go *****
