On the path seldom taken, I'm making my way
and so I never know where I'll be from day to day
Went out & explored because I'm always bored
Too long in the same place, couldn't take it anymore
A mystical journey down the road beyond my door
Even though I don’t know what I'm looking for
I'll know when I find it
(chorus)
I shrugged my load & hit the road
I'm on a quest & everyone's invited
to tag along on their own search
Just let your mind's eye guide it
I'm looking behind every closed door
Can't explain, just be open-minded
Don't know what I'm looking for
but I'll know when I find it
Talked to the guru & he told me what to do
to get out of my life & try something new
Thought it thru, now I've made my decision
I have a new vision, I'm a man on a mission
to go out & do something different today
Thoughts linking, try thinking in a whole new way
to see the world as I never have before
and pay attention to things I used to ignore
Tired of strife, from life I want something more
Even though I don't know what I'm looking for
I'll know when I find it
(chorus)
I shrugged my load & hit the road
I'm on a quest & everyone's invited
to tag along on their own search
Just let your mind's eye guide it
I'm looking behind every closed door
Can't explain, just be open-minded
Don't know what I'm looking for
but I'll know when I find it
I set out on a quest to bring out the best in me
for the rest to see, when I fulfil my destiny
Testing me, some tell me I won't have enough time
but still I keep searching for a reason to my rhyme
and some will say I don't have enough money
I just ignore their looks, no matter how funny
The wrong friends, the wrong way, I'll never get there
Still I'll do it my own way, what do I care?
The greatest treasures in life are well-hidden
the greatest pleasures in life freely given
To test whether your light burns from within
know yourself, a measure to guide how you're livin'
(chorus)
I shrugged my load & hit the road
I'm on a quest & everyone's invited
to tag along on their own search
Just let your mind's eye guide it
I'm looking behind every closed door
Can't explain, just be open-minded
Don't know what I'm looking for
but I'll know when I find it

Chapter notes: Don't know what I'm looking for, but I'll know when I find it...
Chapter end notes: -circa 1999 - 03/31/04
Perhaps I'm just a hopeless romantic, but I've always tried to see life as an adventure, and often had to contend with the disappointment of a system that doesn't want to cooperate. But for what it's worth, I still walk my own path, and take every chance I can get off the rails, to see what there is to see. Still don't know what I'm looking for, but somehow I still know I'll be able to tell when I find it. :P
