TRAVELING SONG

Words and music by Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers (Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers Music/ASCAP)

an afternoon with my legs

stretched on the grass

my head leans back

and lets the hours pass

oh there’s a child in aimless wander

lifting flowers from the grass

the child moves on

the sun sinks in my clothes

a song appears

i hum it as it grows

oh if the wind swept up around me

i would tumble where it chose

and sing of travels where my past is tied

and hugging on my back

travels stepping on and off the track

travels where the winter's dust

is shaken from my shoes

travels always leading home to you

today the beach

the ocean holds my eyes

the waves erase my footsteps

as others rise

oh if a wave swept up around me

i would float without surprise

chorus

the months pass by

your touch is far away

the song grows sad

i miss you every day

oh but another day approaches

reunion rolls in like a wave

chorus
