Song information
A song about a young woman who decides to leave everything behind, pack what matters, and set off into the world.
This song is not about me, but I connect strongly with the character. I understand her hunger for freedom, her need to explore, and the way travel changes you. Through her journey, she sees new places, takes risks, meets people, gets hurt, falls in love, and learns who she really is along the way.

Gemma: Violin and Backing Vocals
Piotr: Guitar, Bass, Drums and Mix
Me: Guitar, Vocals and Lyrics

Lyrics
I packed my bag and left at dawn

With cheap old shoes and dreams to carry on

I saw the sun rise over foreign towns

And learned to smile when I felt lost and down



I danced in bars with strangers by my side

I took long trains and watched the world go by

Some people helped me, some took me for a ride

I lost some money, but I kept my pride



I’ve been far, I’ve been free

I’ve been broken by the road beneath me

I’ve loved fast, I’ve cried slow

But every mile taught me where to go


Instrument break


I met a man beside the sea one night

He held my hand and made the dark feel light

We said goodbye before the morning came

But I still smile when I hear his name


I’ve been far, I’ve been free

I’ve been broken by the road beneath me

I’ve loved fast, I’ve cried slow

But every mile taught me where to go



Now I walk with stories in my eyes

Some are true and some are dressed in lies

I don’t regret the places I have known

The road made me, but I came home

Sorry it took so long to get here Mo. Been ridiculously busy! Glad I didn't miss it...
Funny... It's a song about a young woman and your voice sounds even younger than usual. 
Beautiful music by a gifted trio of musicians!
Love it!
