lyrics

Wednesday morning, traveling north
I'd like to make this land my own someday
Friends and strangers stroll in fancy clothes
While the homeless brothers sing their blues 'til the day is done

I wish I had no cares, I just want to roam
But it's so hard feeling safe when I'm alone
Then I take a look around me now I see
I had people all along surrounding me

When I'm driving on the road to freedom
To leave my suffering behind
All I need on my ride is loved ones by my side
I'm writing my song while I wander along in this trip called life
So come on and sing with me

Sunday evening has a bitter feeling
The world is wondering what tomorrow may bring
Children play until the day is night
While the parents fear the ones they love will die

But I've learned to face the day with bravery
'Cause the only other way is misery
And life is so much better now that I
Embrace the love and leave the worry all behind

When I'm driving on the road to freedom
To leave my suffering behind
All I need on my ride is loved ones by my side
I'm writing my song while I wander along in this trip called life
So come on and sing with me
