Rambling song

There is a song out about a rambler; the song is called Colder Weather. It’s a very good song and if you haven’t heard it you should. When it’s on I know most of the words, and it has been stuck in my head more than a time or two. It is slightly melancholy, talking about wanting to see someone but not being able to. The song is beautiful, but I am saddened by it. It touches me closely because I’ve always felt like a rambler, lost in the wrong time, just travelling through. The chorus goes:

He said I wanna see you again but I'm stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better, can I call you then?
She said you're a ramblin man,
You ain't ever gonna change
You've got a gypsy soul to blame,
And you were born for leavin'
Born for leavin'

I’m not leaving, I’m not going anywhere. But deep down it feels like I’m still rambling. I know I’m moving towards something amazing. I’m heading home, where I belong. But I’m not there yet, and that is what saddens me. There is still a long road ahead before I can stop rambling, before I can finally be home, with the ones I love all together. And I can’t wait till then…:

When I close my eyes I see you,
No matter where I am
I can smell your perfume through these whisperin' pines

I'm with your ghost again,
It's a shame about the weather,
I know soon we'll be together
And I can't wait till then
I can't wait till then

slow down..calm down..dont worry..dont hurry..trust the process.
i understand what you are saying, i really do. you will get there. these things take time,love. we will get there. i can see it and i will be there with you making this happen. we will have them all together again and we will live the life we both see and want..the life that we know in our hearts is the life for us. if i've learned anything from you and our friendship its that the best things take time and patience. i know you are sadder than you can say. thats okay, be sad but know that its just a phase that you have to get through...the best is just ahead of us and when its right we will have it all. until then stay focused and enjoy the now as much as you can. it will get better, hun. idk always.
