A melancholy, bittersweet melodic tune about the experience of being blown around a little by life's events but ultimately being greatful for it.

Lyrics
Geese to fly and river flow over on past Boathouse Row. Light my way and let me go but take me home again. Snow to fall and fire burn. You never live, you never learn. Say goodbye but I'll return if they take me home again. Take me home All I miss and all that's true, left behind but I'll see you. There's something old and it makes me blue and I can't wonder why. Take me home Rainy days in the North of England and California skies are fine, But take me back to South Street when I come back sometime. Mid-Atlantic ties are fine and never touching down, but let me walk East River Drive next time I come around.
