King Of the Road
 








Go beyond reason to Love




SultryRose's Signatures






My cloak of wanderlust it waits
Rolled up beside my couch
It’s early morn…I’m ready
To get out of this house




My bike is gassed and ready
The wide road.. , It awaits
So I’ll hasten down the wind a while
Follow my heart’s dictates




Day tripping back to Eden
In the countryside…I’m free
To feel the sunlight kiss my face
King of the road…that’s me




I’ll ride beside a babbling brook
Perhaps stop.. Catch me a fish
Then build a fire to fry it up
Such a delicious dish




Come night I’ll top a gentle hill
Watch as bright stars explode
Just me…my god…my trusty bike
Traveling a peaceful road




I was one who loved to travel
From town to little town
Searching for adventure
Mid the beauty all around




Now I realize I’m still dreaming
About where I’d love to be
King of the road just one more time
Not armchair bound like me




I still wish that I could saddle up
Feel the power beneath my knees
Riding down the open road again
Hearing wind sing through the trees.
