As I meander, I listen
Listen to the birds singing
The waves washing in on the shore
The wind in the trees
The daydreams in my mind.
As I meander, I watch
Watch the traffic pass me by
Watch for the car I hope to see
I listen for the engine approach
But the familiar growl remains unheard.
As I meander, I watch and listen
Watch the people who pass me by
Watch to see if it’s the friendly face I seek
Listen to the footsteps approach from behind.
But the familiar tread remains unheard.
As I meander, I watch and listen and daydream.
