Traveling Shoes

I gotta taste the wild life

Let the wind blow thru my hair

Feel the earth beneath my feet

And the freedom in the air

You can walk beside me

Down this open road

But please take care to see

You carry your own load

I'm slippin on my travelin shoes

To find my soul at sea

I won't be coming back

Til I know the real me

I hear you wanna come along

And baby, please feel free

But don't you hold me back

From who I'm gonna be

I wanna make my own mistakes

Feel the fear and do it anyway

The gypsy in my soul's awake

I'll fin'ly let her have her say

I'm slippin on my travelin shoes

To find my soul at sea

I won't be coming back

Til I know the real me

I hear you wanna come along

And baby, please feel free

But don't you hold me back

From who I'm gonna be

I gotta know the storm can come

And that I can take the hit

I gotta ride this lifeline

And listen to the wind

I'm gonna find the real me

It's scary and it's new

But whatever happens, baby

I can't fall back on you

I'm slippin on my travelin shoes

To find my soul at sea

I won't be coming back

Til I know the real me

I hear you wanna come along

And baby, please feel free

But don't you hold me back

From who I'm gonna be
