WANDERING


Do you feel that it's worth it
What do you think?
Lady, you always leave me to wait on the brink
You leave me banished to your kingdom of ice
Now tell me quite simply, can you risk that price?


This song is no compliment to tease your mind
It's for an audience of a very different kind
It's a steady outworking, a direction in rhyme
To tell you quite simply, you won't go wasting our time


Then I saw you wandering on a lonely beach
I knew my feelings were out of reach
And I saw you watching for forbidden stars
Child do you know the woman you really are?


I'm asking you gently, I've told you before
If you're wanting to find me then come to my door
Distance is a danger, all those devils loom large
And taunt us with constructions only touch can discharge


Then I saw you wondering when he was gone
Can a man and a woman ever be as one?
Then I saw you longing for someone to touch
Child why do you keep away so very much?
Child why do you keep away so very much?

Then I saw you wandering on a lonely beach
I knew my feelings were out of reach
I saw you watching for forbidden stars
Child do you know the woman you really are?
Child do you know the woman you really are?
