Текст песни
The world is wide, no lifetime can span
I ache to hold it close, to grasp it in my hand
Must I wander? Must I stray
Should I? Should I – or stay away
What do I hope to find? What fear am I to lose
Some reason bids me onward, I don't know which to choose
A pull compels me forward, calls me into flight
It tugs me once again, it steals me into night
I run again, I rise into the sky
Cities and mountains lure and wink my eye
I rush to meet those pretty tempting charms
But should I? Do I need their open arms
Time zones all as one, they've braided into sea
A single rolling current always calling me
My forebears were pilgrims, they wandered wild and free
A rover's restless spirit runs like blood in me
Deep from mountain streams, breakfast away from home
Oh my soft bed, I miss you when I roam
Again I trade my comforts for the road and for the days
Trains give way to airplanes, flights replace the old trains' ways
I run again, I rise into the sky
Cities and mountains lure and wink my eye
I rush to meet those pretty tempting charms
But should I? Do I need their open arms
God, when will I long for rest, when will my heart find peace
What if, in my old age, I never learn release
What if I never know that quiet in both grief and joy
Never taste that certain calm that time cannot destroy
Oh, those ants in my pants—they prod and pull, they bind
They magnetize and point my course, they set my guiding mind
They serve as my vector, drive me out to shape my art
They stir a little busy world wherever I depart
I'm not rushing anywhere now, it's calm
Sorting through old photos, a soothing balm
That hustle has faded like an echo's sigh
I gaze at the nature that’s nearby
But... but... Why just stay at home, oh why
I run again, I rise into the sky
Cities and mountains lure and wink my eye
I run toward lovely shining tempting lands
I need it, yes I need it, can't keep still my hands
