Lyrics
[verse]
There was a boy, a curious, wandering boy,
Who walked the earth in search of quiet joy.
He crossed the mountains, crossed the desert sand,
Looking for a truth he'd understand.
[chorus]
And this he told me, strange and calm and clear:
There's nothing worth chasing half as dear
As opening your heart and letting someone in,
That's the only treasure worth the finding.
[verse]
He never settled, never stayed too long,
He carried nothing but this single song.
Kings and beggars both would stop and stare,
As if his eyes held secrets from somewhere.
[chorus]
And this he told me, strange and calm and clear:
There's nothing worth chasing half as dear
As opening your heart and letting someone in,
That's the only treasure worth the finding.
[bridge]
Strings drift like fog across a silent hill,
Carrying his whisper, and it lingers still.
Somewhere he is walking, somewhere far from here,
Teaching the same lesson to whoever's near.
[chorus]
And this he told me, strange and calm and clear:
There's nothing worth chasing half as dear
As opening your heart and letting someone in,
That's the only treasure worth the finding.
