World Traveler Lyrics - Counting Stars - Andrew Peterson

Well, I grew up in a little town 

A southern mix of lost and found 

Where most folks seem to stick around, whoa 

But I could hear the highway song 

I'd sit out on the dock till dawn 

And dream about the great beyond 

I dreamed that I was a world traveler 

Set me loose to find my way 

Just get me out on the road someday 

With my sails unfurled 

So many mysteries I wanted to unravel 

If I could travel the world 

And soon enough I had my way 

I saw the world the Lord has made 

Mostly from the interstate, whoa

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

But I had hardly seen a thing 

Until I gave that golden ring 

To the one who gave her heart to me 

And I became a world traveler 

That's the day I hit the road 

I walked the hills of the human soul 

Of a tender girl 

I'm a world traveler 

She opened the gate and took my hand 

Led me into the mystic land 

Where her galaxies swirl 

So many mysteries I never will unravel 

I want to travel the world 

Take a left at the end of my street 

Just a few doors down 

Up the hill and into the trees 

There's a hole in the ground 

Photos 

Where we traveled the caverns so deep 

Wandered the wonders so wide 

It was right beneath our feet 

All this time, all this time 

Well, tonight I saw the children in their rooms 

Little flowers all in bloom 

Burning suns and silver moon 

And somehow in those starry skies 

The image of the Maker lies 

Right here beneath my roof tonight 

So hold on tight, I'm a world traveler, yeah 

Oh, I'm a world traveler 

Pack your bags and dig down deep 

Ride the storms and sail the seas 

To the distant pole 

I'm a world traveler 

Into these uncharted lands 

To blaze a trail in the vast expanse 

Of the heart and soul 

In the grace of the God of peace 

Let's wade into the battle 

So come on, come on with me 

And get up in that saddle 

There's a million mysteries I'm ready to unravel 

Come on, let's travel the world 

So come on, come on with me now 

I want to travel the world 

So come on, come on with me
