World Traveler - Counting Stars Album Version

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
 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
 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
