wandering man
fairport convention
see how a wandering man crosses the open plain
you know it's not in vain
footprints left in the earth
a long way from a baby he was born
deep down in the diamond mines
he could fall and cut his skin
fooled by a trick of the light
there's a land beneath the moon
a place where everything's been said
but nothing has been told
he could lift his head and turn to the sun
freedom is only as good as you feel
so grasp and hold this moment in time
lives on an ancient ground for his company
casting out the shadows of doubt
soldier of the peaceful way
fighting from dusk 'til dawn
everything's been ripped apart
but nothing has been torn
he could lift his head and turn to the sun
freedom is only as good as you feel
so grasp and hold this moment in time
could i be a wandering man
you're on my mind all of the time
all great ventures ever made
so every step i'm planning today
might take me to your heart
so i lift my head and turn to the sun
freedom is only as good as you feel
so grasp and hold this moment in time
freedom is only as good as you feel
so grasp and hold this moment in time
