I've been traveling a long hard road
That keeps me from the city
Idealistic
They think I'm a mystic
The woods aren't all that pretty
But I can't choose between the two
No, that's not in my nature
I have to keep going
An oar that keeps rowing
Circling now and later
All alone
For the sake of my being
And being who I am
I'd throw it away
For the price of a smile
And start all over again
Now, I'm not trying to do what I do
It happens naturally
So consistant
Always insistent
And not a game to please
But if you have a smile to share
And happen to pass this way
Take a look at my Tower
Talk for an hour
And plan my getaway
All alone
For the sake of my being
And being who I am
I'd throw it away
For the price of a smile
And start all over again
