From departure to arrival What does it mean to travel With your suitcase by the handle Holding everything you need Are you going or are you coming Walking slow or running Toward somebody or from something Trade your longing in for speed And the freedom to be a stranger Is a bargain that's ours alone Sometimes you just want to be someone else Unencumbered and unknown From departure to arrival What does it mean to travel And from taking off to landing You could feel your heart expanding You walked halfway down Manhattan Till you met the Brooklyn Bridge And in a 2 AM transmission From a high wire act position How the skyline behind you glistened As if someone pulled a switch And I don't want to be a stranger And I don't want to be alone But sometimes I just want to be somewhere else Untethered and unknown When I am far from home From departure to arrival What does it mean to travel From Letras Mania
