[Verse 1] Here I am walking, far from familiar streets Looking for someone who might resemble me Whispering something, it sounds like a travelers prayer Saying luck play your hand, I am a stranger here Time be a friend, show me which way to steer Love show your face, with the grace of a travelers prayer [Verse 2] Maybe its tucked in a journal youve carried for years Engraved on a compass or long disappeared The one in my heads always ready when I need a spare Rciting the words as Im yearning for home Whn daylight has left me by the side of the road Nobodys hurting and nobodys cold anywhere In a travelers prayer [Verse 3] So Im scanning the skies for signs that were not alone Signals and messages bound for the twilight zone Maybe theyre wondering who keeps on waving down there Were just the pale blue dot, a speck in an inkblack sky Do we see with our hearts instead of our jaded eyes? Imagine the world on a string and sing a travelers prayer [Bridge] And what if I heard my name called by a voice that I know From a memory summoned from so long ago? I keep feeling the lately departed are everywhere See Mary Chapin Carpenter LiveGet tickets as low as 51You might also like[Verse 4] And now the days race like swifts in the violet hour Veering and steering higher and and farther Oh, to be finally delivered on a warm gust of air Its a travelers prayer Reciting the words as were yearning for home When darkness has found us at the end of the road Nobodys hurting and nobodys cold anywhere In a travelers prayer Mmmm, mmm
