Oh, Weary Traveler
Oh, weary traveler, put down your sails
Come into this harbor – we’ve heard all your tales
Oh, weary traveler, come upon the shore
Forage in our trees until you want no more
No more
Oh, weary traveler, out at sea so long
Are you longing, longing to belong?
Oh, weary traveler, we’re all weary too
All coming home, and all missing you
Missing you
Oh, weary traveler, is your only rest
In a lonely mountain’s vulture-stalked nest?
Well, as a weary traveler I tried to make there a bed
But they feasted on my folded wings, taking me for dead
So now, weary traveler, I only lay my soul
At the heart of dear mates who are kin of ol’
Kin of ol’
Here, weary traveler, let’s touch with our hands
Breathe and sigh, “I understand”
For, weary traveler, I fly the flights
Out of my darkness and into my light
Into the light
Oh, weary traveler, leave if you choose
Go, fill your cups, I have mine too
And, weary traveler, if you choose to stay
Then, my friend, you may, you may, you may
You may
Please stay
Oh, weary traveler, put down your sails
Come into this harbor – we’ve lived all the tales
Oh, weary traveler, we navigate the flights
Into our darkness and into our light
Into our light
Into our light
Into our light
