Wanderlust by Ren Stedman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I do the same things every day
The drinks I drink, how much I pay
I’m always scared to even try
To do things slightly differently
[Verse 2]
And I’m the first one to complain
How nothing ever seems to change
I curse the world for how it is
But more this town specifically
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you’ll all wake up
And find that I have disappeared
I’ll write a note before I go
To let you know I’ve held you dear
For oh so many years
[Chorus]
I’ll board the train to some old place
I’ve never been and I can’t properly pronounce the name
I’m sure you’ll all see me around
But never in this deadbeat dirty town again
There’s places that I need to go
And cities that I have to roam
Dreams that I will watch begin to grow
But I’ll always follow the road that leads me back home
[Verse 3]
Maybe I will find my place
If I just use the guts it takes
To live a little larger than I
Usually tend to do
[Verse 4]
I haven’t found a purpose yet
Than drinking beer and smoking cigarettes
Around the people that I hate
And barely tolerate
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you’ll all wake up
And find that I have disappeared
I’ll write a note before I go
To let you know I’ve held you dear
For oh so many years
[Chorus]
I’ll board the train to some old place
I’ve never been and I can’t properly pronounce the name
I’m sure you’ll all see me around
But never in this deadbeat dirty town again
There’s places that I need to go
And cities that I have to roam
Dreams that I will watch begin to grow
But I’ll always follow the road that leads me back home
[Bridge]
‘Cause I am sick and tired
Of such an ordinary life
There’s so much more than this
And if there’s not then how can people stand to live?
I’m bored of seeing everyone
Reside to go along
So I have got to go
And in the morning when you wake up I’ll be gone
[Outro]
I’ve moved around from town to town
But everywhere has let me down
And I know I’ve let my friends down on the way
This wanderlust and feeling
Just like I have got to leave
It must be a sign that I must carry on my way
So it looks like I am set to leave again
Woah
There’s places that I need to go
And cities that I have to roam
Dreams that I will watch begin to grow
But I’ll always follow the road that leads me back home
I do the same things every day
The drinks I drink, how much I pay
I’m always scared to even try
To do things slightly differently
[Verse 2]
And I’m the first one to complain
How nothing ever seems to change
I curse the world for how it is
But more this town specifically
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you’ll all wake up
And find that I have disappeared
I’ll write a note before I go
To let you know I’ve held you dear
For oh so many years
[Chorus]

I’ve never been and I can’t properly pronounce the name
I’m sure you’ll all see me around
But never in this deadbeat dirty town again
There’s places that I need to go
And cities that I have to roam
Dreams that I will watch begin to grow
But I’ll always follow the road that leads me back home
