Michael Beatty: Lyrics & Listen

Something About Walking

(Michael Beatty)

I know something about walking

On a wire, on a cloud

I've been fearless with my walking

Moving high above the crowd

Do you ever think to wander?

Join a circus, join a band?

I cannot help but wander

Drifting out across the land

 

I am the Great Valerio

I am the Lonesome Dove

So sure that I am over you

Steady stalwart homing from above

 

I know something about water

Like the turning of the tides

I've been steady gauging water

moving out across the wide

To the rocking and the reeling

Say a prayer for Captain Joe

And the broken days of leaving

Ten thousand miles to go

 

I am the Great Valerio

I am the Lonesome Dove

So sure that I am over you

Steady stalwart homing from above
