Final version of lyrics: Friday, December 22nd, 1989 The Traveller And The Gypsy Girl (Unreleased) the traveller asked the gypsy girl if she would walk with him he asked her for she struck him so, more than did his own kin he spoke to her of mountains, of rivers, lakes and streams they filled each other's thoughts with their freedom dreams the traveller wrote her music and wrote to her each day he did so to remind her that he was not so far away he wrote of flowing chessboard fields, of pebbles, rocks and stones he told her once how he had lost his family and his home he wrote to her of silences, raised voices, and of fear he hoped that she would release him from his pain and from his tears he trusted her with everything, with her the traveller did not fear he told her his most secret wish that no one else could hear that if one day he fell in love with a gypsy girl so pure he would hold her in his arms and love her evermore and give her all he had to give, his heart that she so churned "my life is yours," he whispered, and asked for nothing in return. 22 December 1989, London/Edinburgh
