Travelin’ On

©1998 Steven Macdonald

Travelin’ on now
Away
Travelin’ on now
Going my way
Travelin’ on now
Somehow
Right now

Movin’ along now
Find my place
Movin’ along now
Set a new pace
Movin’ along now
Somehow
Right now

I’m on my own
All alone
Time to make
A new home

I’m on my way
Make a place to stay
Looking up
To a new day

Instrumental

Movin’ along now
Let go the old
Movin’ along now
Make a new mold
Movin’ along now
Somehow
Right now


This song was originally written this as a “I feel sorry for me” dirge- this interpretation lasted about a day. It now represents sloughing off the old, the outmoded; and looking forward with clear eyes and a light heart.
