Road to Nowhere – II
I’m tired
And I want to go home
My heart’s been hurting
Ever so long
I can’t keep walking on
Because now
my feet hurt too
I just want to go home
To you
But I’m walking in circles
And I’m scared
How will I find my way home
To you
On the road to nowhere?

CALLIOPE'S LYRE 
Old lexicon: “Once you leave, you can never go home”. It isn’t now and never will be the same as it was before. It may seem familiar, but now you’re a stranger there, Welcome, yes, but an outsider, a visitor, just the same. Been there and done that enough times to know.
This is more my style…
“Show me the way to go home…, I’m tired an’ I wanna go to bed….
Had a little drink ’bout an hour ago, an’ it went right to my head.
No matter where I roam, on the land, in the air, or on the foam.
You’ll always hear me singin’ this song…, show me the way t’ go home”.
…..peace and contentment are, a lot of times, a better destination than “home”, or Love. Most often the idea of passionate, romantic love is just that – an idea – and not a reality that you can hold on to for long.
OK, I’m rambling…, so sue me !!! 🙂 Good night, Cookie. ~xo~

I think all the happiness is my life, comes form ideas and dreams, Paul. There really is no other source, tbh. So those flimsy ideas end up being a lot more significant than they are to most people.
That or I’m just a kook. :p I loved your words, by the way. Do you play the guitar? Cause I swear I heard a guitar behind those words. 😀 Good morning, Paul. Hope you’re having a good one. 🙂
