Where I Wanted To Go

When I opened my eyes
I could only smile
When I could see
Well then I laughed for a while
When I stood up
so weary and slow
Still knew that I’d get
Where I wanted to go

Took a hike down the road
didn’t bother to pack
Took the stars, and some sunshine
down a railroad track
I’m a bridge yeah, I’m a steamboat
I’m a Buffalo Bill
Made love to the wind
I’m a mountain, I’m a hill

I’ve talked with some wise men
some unseen and unheard
Took a long road, to the wrong road
I’m a toad, I’m bird
Saw the shadow of death
Out collecting his toll
I’m a city in ashes
I’m a story untold

When I close these eyes
Once more will I smile
Cause I’ve looked up, and I’ve looked down
And I’ve laughed for a while
When I lie down
Still weary and slow
I’ll know that I’ve been
Where I wanted...
just wanted...
always wanted to go
