Loni Ackerman Travel (feat. Margery Cohen & George Lee Andrews)
Take me where you want to go
make it anywhere at all
Follow any winds that blow
any course that seems to call
Northward, Southward, East or West
Take me different places
show me different faces
That's the life I like best
Travel!
As the boat says to the river
when it's free and starting to float
Take me where you want to go
make it anywhere you please
Ride the center of the flow
or meander near the trees
Onward, upward, day by day
Rudder firm and steady
I am standing ready
Sweep me off on our way
Travel!
As the leaf says to the river
with a wondrous sigh of relief
Take me where you want to go
show me all there is to see
Move me fast or move me slow
it's agreeable to me
Whirl me, swirl me
far from land
Let your spirit guide you
I am here beside you
I am at your command
Travel!
Oh! To catch the scent of your adventure
full and strong
And know the greatest joys are yet to come along
Take me where you want to go
Any destiny is fine
(Take me where you want to go
Any destiny is fine)
When the dawn begins to glow
your excitement will be mine
(When the dawn begins to glow
your excitement will be mine)
My way, byway, far and wide
Stop at any station
any destination
I am yours for the ride
Travel!
As the wife says or the husband
when they're starting out on their life
Take me where you want to go
I will sail along with you
With our family in tow
We will see each other through
Sunrise, sunset, year to year
Rounding every bending
to the river's ending
I will always be near
