I've been around the world a thousand times,
Seen the same places and faces and traces,
I never forget, regret, reject, expect,
Quenching my thirst,
Complacence is curse,

I climb from mountain to mountain,
Bird on a wing,
Like the wind,
The song that I sing,

Never satisfied to stand in line,
Wasting my mind,
It's my time to shine,

I just can't get away from yesterday,
But I keep on living the wanderer's way,
And over and over I start a new,
But I can't escape the thoughts of you,

I tried to play your game a thousand times,
And I let it infect and defect and affect,
My clarity, my charity, my destiny,
Sold out who I was,
And what I could be,

I drift from moment to moment,
Looking for serenity,
A place to stand,
A home for me,
In a world that's fueling insanity,

I just can't get away from yesterday,
But I keep on living the wanderer's way,
And over and over I start a new,
But I can't escape the thoughts of you,

I just can't get away from yesterday,
But I keep on living the wanderer's way,
And over and over I start a new,
But I can't escape the thoughts of you,

Never satisfied to stand in line,
Wasting my mind,
It's my time to shine.
