about

"Wanderlust" was the last song I wrote for 'Nuda Veritas.' There was another song I'd planned to include but replaced it with this one. The idea for this song came to me while I was driving home one day, and I remember rushing into my apartment so I could write it down before I forgot it.

lyrics

I'm a woman with gold in my bones
My heart is heavy with the brilliance I own
Ever searching for the next outbound road
The song on my tongue will lighten my load

The farther I see
The further I go
Til I've reached the end of the line

CHORUS
Give me a moment, I'll tell you a story
Of falling with no place to land
It's just me, myself, and my wanderlust
And the world in the palm of my hand

I'm the ruler of my own Xanadu
Where the stars dance to the whims of my moons
Love's my mission, my theory to prove
So I'll keep walking til I find my way to you

My heart is broken
My heart is mending
And I got nothing but time

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Beyond this mountain
Across this desert
There's a peace I'll call home
Out of this valley
After the storms roll
When I find it, I'll know

From the shadows of a life I once led
Come the memories of a life left for dead
And the remnants of the skins I shed
Will litter the path to the road up ahead

The farther I see
The further I go
To leave all this heartache behind

It's just me, myself, and my wanderlust
And we're traveling at the speed of light
It's just me, myself, and all my dreams
Moving on down the line
