The journey

 

 

It was a cold and rainy monday when we left,

november shook us with his pitchblack blues

an old and rusty camper was to be our only home

we had absolutely nothing left to loose

 

The forecast for the coming week was rough

still bright compared to what we left behind

comes a time when you just feel enough is enough

a time to hit the road and clear your mind

 

You and me

You and me

all we wanted was to be free

 

We tried hard to settle down for many years

a family of our own would have been great

but the papers talked of nothing but destruction rage and fear

so we went to seek a different kind of fate

 

You and me

You and me

all we wanted was to be free

 

Now two years have gone by in sunshine and rain

we didn´t know what to expect from the start

we decided to leave a life completely in vain

what we got instead was food for mind and heart

 

But some of the people that we meet

have frightening stories in their eyes

 

No plans made for tomorrow we just keep eachother warm

and a smile from you is all I need

when we´re driving through the tumbleweed

seeking temporary shelter from the storm
