Lyrics

All those years ago
What was I following?
I was following my heart
All I ever wanted to be
Was to be wild and free
To leave behind
My old life
So what do you do
When the choices that you own
The people you choose
Treat you worse than you knew
You would ever let them treat you?
Who do you blame?
And who do you trust?
Can they be the same?
Now here I am and it's just me
Finally
Silence to think
But when I close my eyes
Can I still trust my dreams?
Do I follow what I'm feeling?
Or could this just be life repeating?
So what do you do
When the lessons that you learn
Are taught by you
And you weren't even listening
To your heart as it was beating
Screaming, pointing in the direction
That you wouldn't dare to look in?
What do you want?
And what do you need?
Can they be the same wide open
Wild, free feeling
I feel all over when I'm riding?
I know that feeling
I trust that feeling
Free and wandering but still at home
