I Wonder When You Wander
I wonder when you wander
As you pace up and down the hall
What it is you’re thinking
As you run your fingers along the wall
I wonder when you wander
When you silently slip away
What it is you feel inside
As all the others continue to play
I wonder when you wander
What you want to say
When you retreat back into your world
To script and script away
I wonder when you wander
What it is you see
When you take off from your safety net
When you run away from me
I wonder when you wander
When you look up to the open sky
What it is that captures you
As you spin and watch the clouds float by
I wonder when you wander
Out and towards the street
What made you release your grasp
Was it the vibrations beneath your feet
I wonder when you wander
Why the water draws you so near
As you closely watch the surface dance
Never once overcome with fear
I wonder when you wander
If deep inside your head
You remember all we’ve practiced
So we can always kiss goodnight before bed
