Wanderlust
Embrace the Journey: Wanderlust by Lauren Chase
Lyrics
I’m no stranger to the morning sun
I am familiar with the early morning sunlight.
I’ve looked danger in the eye and I won
I have faced danger directly and emerged victorious.
You won’t find me anywhere you run
You won't find me wherever you try to escape because I am moving forward.
‘Cause I’m moving on from here
I am leaving this place and progressing.
I wanna let go of these painful memories
I want to release these painful memories.
‘Cause they won’t hold on to my future me
Past hurts will not hold me back in shaping my future self.
What you said, it will be hard to leave
Although what you said will be difficult to leave behind, I forgive you.
But oh, I forgive you
Expressing forgiveness towards someone.
Dreaming’s not a waste of time
Engaging in dreams is not a waste of time.
Wanderlust
Expressing a desire for travel and exploration.
I won’t change my mind
Committing to not change one's mind.
Listen,
Repetition of "Listen" for emphasis.
Listen,
-Listen, Yeah
-Not all who wander are lost this time
Not all who explore aimlessly are lost; it's a purposeful journey.
I’m not afraid of being out at night
Not afraid of being outside at night, trusting the heart as a guide.
‘Cause my heart will be my guiding light
Belief that the heart will lead to the right path.
I got no money but my future’s bright
Despite lacking material wealth, the future is promising.
Let’s all just get out of here
A collective call to leave the current situation.
Promise me you’ll never be the one
Requesting a promise not to become complacent.
To get comfortable as some have done
Encouraging not to settle down as others might have done.
I can lead you where the wild run
Offering to lead others to adventurous places.
Just look to the sky from here
Suggesting to look at the sky for inspiration.
Dreaming’s not a waste of time
Reiteration that dreaming is not a waste of time.
Dreaming’s not a waste of time
-Wanderlust
Reiteration of the desire for wanderlust.
I won’t change my mind
Reaffirmation of the commitment not to change one's mind.
Listen,
Repetition of "Listen" for emphasis.
Listen,
-Listen, Yeah
-Not all who wander are lost this time
Reiteration that not all wanderers are lost; it's purposeful.
I’m a sucker for spontaneity
Expressing an inclination towards spontaneity.
I’m a dreamer
Identifying as a dreamer against harsh realities.
Against all reality
Encouraging others to join in the dream despite reality.
Join me, this time
Repetition of "Join me, this time" for emphasis.
Join me, this time
-Dreaming’s not a waste of time
Reiteration that dreaming is not a waste of time.
Wanderlust
Expressing a strong desire for wanderlust.
I won’t change my mind
Reaffirmation of the commitment not to change one's mind.
Listen,
Repetition of "Listen" for emphasis.
Listen,
-Listen, Yeah
-Not all who wander are lost this time
Repeated assurance that not all who wander are lost, emphasizing the certainty of the journey.
Not all who wander are lost this time
-Not all who wander are lost this time
-This time
-Oh, this time
Emphasizing the current moment as distinct and significant.
