lyrics

Morning arrives, the day is bright
Free of the bond which held us tight
To all that we didn't want to be
Sometimes all's not as rosy as it seems

Leaving we wave our last farewell
Bursting the bubble which served us well
But could never be the answer
Because we'd never take a chance
Until we threw it all to dance in the breeze

Caution is packed with our money and clothes
Into the back of our 4-wheeled horse
Instant reaction eludes us at first
But it will all be worth the wait in the end

Greeting our hosts with open-ness
Tired but happy in this strange, strange nest
Less than a day since we left behind
All that we know and comprehend
There's a sense of belonging but a reason for knocking down
The walls of familiarity.
