I Travel Alone - Noël Coward

I travel alone

Sometimes I’m east

Sometimes I’m west

No chains can ever bind me

No remembered love

Can ever find me

I travel alone

Fair though the places

And faces I’ve known

When the dream has ended

And passion has flown

I travel alone

The world is wide, and when my day is done I shall at least have traveled free

Led by this wanderlust that turns my eyes to far horizons

Though time and tide won’t wait for anyone

There’s one illusion left for me

And that’s the happiness I’ve known alone

I travel alone

Sometimes I’m east

Sometimes I’m west

No chains can ever bind me

No remembered love

Can ever find me

I travel alone

Fair though the places

And faces I’ve known

When the dream has ended

And passion has flown

I travel alone

Free from love’s illusion

My heart is my own

I travel all alone
