When you keep movin’ on,
You find yourself further and further from home,
You’re here then you’re gone,
Findin’ out how far you truly can roam.
I’m sleepin’ alone,
I guess that’s the price for not settling down,
But wherever I roam,
I can’t believe how much pure beauty abounds.
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home,
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home.
I’m thinkin’ today,
About all the lovers in life I have known,
Kept slippin’ away,
Sands through the fingers of time they have gone.
But seasons do change,
And rains in the spring paint these colors of fall.
While rivers keep time,
I’m just trying to stay in the flow of it all.
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home,
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home.
Bring that boat please to the other side,
There must be somewhere I should be,
My home is everywhere the world is wide,
Set fear aside,
Take life in stride,
Enjoy the ride.
If it’s just up to me,
The simpler the better’s the best way to go,
A warm cup of tea,
A handwritten letter, just taking it slow,
I’m takin’ my time,
Trying my best not to let it slip by,
The fruit of the vine,
Is always right here if we free up our mind.
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home,
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home,
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home,
Ferryman, ferryman carry me home.
