Travel.
Where shall I travel,
in my worn down shoes,
I love so many places,
it's hard to choose.
In my short life I've walked a long road,
stopped in many places.
Where the sun's brighter, grass is greener,
where there's more friendly places.
But if I should travel to China,
Germany or Spain,
Africa or Italy,
or to Egypt on a plane,
I know there'd be so much that I'd have to leave behind.
So when they ask me where I'm travelling,
I say 'right here's just fine.'
See- if I had unlimited money,
and a case already packed,
I guess I could leave for Paradise,
and say 'no looking back'.
But my heart is pretty settled here,
with the love of my life,
so I think I'll stay right here,
and one day become his wife.
Hawaii sounds so pretty,
and India sounds quite fine,
it'd be nice to see the bigger cities,
and feel the warmer climes,
but if I'm really honest,
if I really speak my mind,
then I'll throw away the atlas,
and stay home everytime
