Wayfaring

Lyrics for Wayfaring

The clock tolls the hour and the morning's come And the wreck of the meal is on the table Now I lay by your side when the candle it had died And I couldn't find the words for to tell you, mm-mm So I'll bid you farewell as you're sleeping And you stand all alone in your world The words that we shared are but shadows that fly Through the hours that run without waiting to say goodbye (Goodbye) Say goodbye (Goodbye) Mm, say goodbye (Goodbye) I'm going out upon a highway, aiming for a city light Sky above and a road beyond and I'm moving on I'm moving on Waiting in the freezing rain, maybe hitch a southern ride A plastic meal on a motorway and the city lights that burn the sky No one around and you know you're a long way from home I'm going easy down the highway, looking out for something new Sky above and a road beyond and I'm moving on I'm moving on Mm, moving on The sun burns the sky and it sinks in the west And my footsteps lead down to the sea Now I'm far away but I seem to hear you say "Take care, my love, while you're gone" Moving on (Goodbye) Moving on (Goodbye) Mm, moving on (Goodbye) (Goodbye)
