Pointed - The Traveling Song lyrics

rate me

So you want some traveling<br />

And you want someone with whom to travel, too<br />

<br />

So who will it be --<br />

To share the drive and keep you company?<br />

<br />

You smile and point my way<br />

Well, it's a pleasant surprise<br />

To see in whom your pleasure lies<br />

<br />

Let's see... <br />

So little time and such a vast country! <br />

<br />

So where will it be?<br />

There's so much out there that I've not seen! <br />

<br />

We're letting fancy soar<br />

Yeah, we're snipping her string<br />

To see what pleasures getting abroad can bring<br />

<br />

And hand in hand<br />

We'll tackle every corner of western land<br />

Taste<br />

I could have given up and left this existence<br />

I could have given up all drive and persistence<br />

I nearly stopped, but I gave things a shot a little longer<br />

And dreamt that there was someone yet to find<br />

<br />

I thought that I was done when I hadn't started<br />

I thought I'd died but I was just brokenhearted<br />

I wanted to reach and taste the fruits of life without standing<br />

It's demanding, and I didn't think it'd pay<br />

<br />

And though it's not the usual thing to say, <br />

I don't really, really need you<br />

And though it's not the usual thing to say, <br />

I don't live because I love you<br />

(Though I do love you)<br />

<br />

I buckled down and looked around at existence<br />

I found the things that gave me drive and persistence<br />

What would happen if I stuck around a little longer?<br />

Maybe someday I would be surprised<br />

<br />

So now I look around and see what I've started<br />

And how there wasn't need to be brokenhearted<br />

I stand and reach and taste the fruits of life with the understanding<br />

That bitch
