Story behind the song

The first song from Francien van Tuinen's album 'Despina's Eye'. It ends very nice with an open chord. I play this song also with the school band of the Dr. Nassau College in Assen, Drenthe (Soulmade): that performance is sung by Sylvia Venema with Steven Sluiter on bass, Joost Wesseling on drums and me on piano. On this performance I overdubbed the piano, bass guitar, drums and vocals.

Lyrics

This tale’s about a man
with no peace of mind
So he went overseas and left all behind
He traveled miles, he chased the endless skies

As he moved along
he learned how the world can be ruled by
one
Fortune and fame he gained
but it didn’t fill his mind

And now that he’s drifting
he’s in motion not in harmony
Now he is searching a place that lives op to 
his memory
But will he find his home
