The Wandering Man
Wandering Through Life's Symphony: A Midnight Cowboy's Journey
Lyrics
Well some might say
Expressing that some people might have an opinion about the speaker.
That I'm a lucky man
Acknowledging that the speaker is considered fortunate by some.
I'm doing what I want
Asserting the freedom to do as one pleases.
With anyone I can
Indicating a willingness to engage romantically with anyone.
I am a midnight cowboy I'm the devil himself
Describing oneself as a rebellious and adventurous figure.
I get by on my own
Emphasizing self-reliance and independence.
I need nobody else
Stating a lack of need for others in the speaker's life.
That's how I rock and roll
Expressing a carefree attitude and enjoyment of life.
I'm alright on the shelf
Asserting contentment with being alone.
You turn around I'm gone I've hit the road again
Describing a pattern of leaving and hitting the road.
Who said good times can't last for ever
Questioning the notion that good times cannot last indefinitely.
Better to burn out than fade away
Quoting the idea that it's better to burn out than fade away.
I'll keep sailing on through stormy weathers
Committing to persist through challenging times.
I may pay the price, not today
Acknowledging potential consequences in the future but not immediately.
I'll give you all I've got
Offering to give everything in return for reciprocation.
But you must give me yours
Highlighting the need for mutual giving in a relationship.
Soon I'll be passing through
Anticipating a departure in the near future.
So open up your doors
Encouraging others to be receptive as the speaker moves on.
I am the soul provider I'm the wandering man
Identifying oneself as a source of spiritual nourishment and a wanderer.
Who said good times can't last for ever
Repeating the idea that good times can endure.
Better to burn out than fade away
Reiterating the preference for an intense existence over a gradual decline.
I'll keep sailing on through stormy weathers
Committing to persevere through challenges despite potential costs.
I may pay the price, not today
Acknowledging a potential future price to pay but not immediately.
Who said good times can't last for ever
Repeat of questioning the belief that good times are fleeting.
Better to burn out than fade away
Repeat of the preference for a vibrant existence over a gradual decline.
I'll keep sailing on through stormy weathers
Reaffirming the commitment to navigate through challenges.
I may pay the price, not today
Repeating the acknowledgment of a potential future cost.
Who said good times can't last for ever
Repeating the questioning of the belief that good times are temporary.
It's Better to burn out than fade away
Reiterating the preference for intensity over a gradual decline.
I'll keep sailing on through stormy weathers
Committing to persist through storms and challenges.
I may pay the price, not today
Acknowledging a potential future cost of the chosen path.
