…We would look out over the immense sea, full of white-flecked and green reflections, the two of us leaning side by side on the railing, each of us far away, flying in his own aircraft to the stratospheric regions of his own dreams. There we understood that our vocation, our true vocation, was to move for eternity along the roads and seas of the world. Always curious, looking into everything that came before our eyes, sniffing out each corner but only ever faintly - not setting down roots in any land or staying long enough to see the substratum of things; the outer limits would suffice.
Ernesto Che Guevara, The Motorcycle Diaries
I was born by the river, just like this river,
I've been moving ever since
ain't got no body to call my own you know
I've been moving since the day I was born
life is a game just made for fun, I don't need no body
no, I don't love no one
yes, I'm a mover baby
now get out of my way will ya?
don't try to stop me now
Following the footpath one fine day,
when I asked a wise man which was the way,
he said "follow you heart and look for yourself,
and come back and tell me what you have learned".
yes, I'm a mover.
Went back and told him I'd found me a wife,
eleven children and a real good life,
told him I'd left this happy home,
'cause I need to return to the long winding road
yes, I'm a mover
Free, I'm a mover
