Hey there now, traveling girl, don't go away from me
This heart, it waits alone in agony
Hey there now, traveling girl, of all the things you've seen
Has anyone brought you upon your knees?

I know who taught you how to leave
But I won't make the same mistake, believe

Hey there now, traveling girl, what blood is left to bleed?
Have eastern shores changed the cause you seek?
Hey there now, traveling girl, no need for gallantry
For your stronger than I could ever bе

And you only told me this world gets lonely with еvery setting sun
So hold on tightly to the memory of when I was the one
Until that day comes

Hey there now, traveling girl, I could have everything
Still, this heart remains alone in agony
Hey there now, traveling girl, if you are bound to leave
I pray the road will take you home to me
