lyrics

Oh, you’re worried
That I’ll overbook my stay
That I’ll turn your sights away
From you’re goin’
But I’m still so far from my journey’s end
I’m not looking for a home, I’m just lookin’ for a friend

And I don’t mind if I’m a wayfarer here
I don’t mind if I can’t stay
Just as long as you take me out of the rain
And offer me some rest along my way

And I can’t promise that I’ll want to leave
When the bell, it tolls my time
But if I must go, I’ll do so peacefully
If just for now, dear, I can call you mine

I know well that I could go it alone
The wind and the stars my only guide
But my tender heart could use the company
If I expect to travel satisfied

And I’m not askin’ you to stop and wait
If a brighter path you find
But if we’re both in search of some promised land
Well, maybe we’ll arrive there side by side

Trust me, I don’t believe I have reached
the land of milk and honey, milk and honey

I’ll help you if you try to help me to
the land of milk and honey milk and honey
