"But Hold Me Fast 'Cause I'm a Hopeless Wanderer"

Every time I hear Mumford and Sons, I can't help but think of my first semester teaching when I had two sisters in the same class, and they were OBSESSED with M&S.  I was already listening to it on my drives out to Gravette, but it became an every other day listening party until I got sick.

I just love "Hopeless Wanderer."  If you haven't seen the video, you need to check it out!


You heard my voice
I came out of the woods by choice
Shelter also gave their shade
But in the dark I have no name


So leave that click in my head
And I will remember the words that you said
Left a clouded mind and a heavy heart
But I was sure we could see a new start

So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road

But hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer

I wrestled long with my youth
We tried so hard to live in the truth
But do not tell me all is fine
When I lose my head, I lose my spine

So leave that click in my head
And I won't remember the words that you said
You brought me out from the cold
Now, how I long, how I long to grow old

So when your hope's on fire
But you know your desire
Don't hold a glass over the flame
Don't let your heart grow cold
I will call you by name
I will share your road

But hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer
And hold me fast, Hold me fast
'Cause I'm a hopeless wanderer

I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
I will learn, I will learn to love the skies I'm under
The skies I'm under
