How I Roam – words and music by Karen Morand October 2012
Summer’s gone and winter’s near – O how I roam
I wandered far away from here – O how I roam
I’ve got restless feet I guess
A traitor lives inside my chest
When will I find sweetest rest – O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam

I captured love so wild and sweet – O how I roam
He made me fly and blushed my cheek – O how I roam
Then he took my wayward heart
Took the light and left the dark
Leaving only bitter parts – O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam

Sweet Jesus, be a friend to me – O how I roam
Help to make these blind eyes see – O how I roam
Trade me for my heart of stone
Gather up these old dry bones
Show me things I’ve never know – O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam

Winter’s here and autumn’s gone

I’ve wandered ‘round for far too long
Bring me where my heart belongs – O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
Ohhhhh, O how I roam
