Song Meaning of “The Waters I Traveled, Pt. 3” by Sylvan
Verse 1:
In this dark night, I move forward alone
With a broken heart and a heavy load
I search for peace, my soul feels so worn
Through the perils of life, I never had a home
Chorus:
Deeper and deeper I search for solace
The gentle fingers of the waters I traveled still haunt me
My heart is raw with the longing I feel
The distant shores have frozen my will
Verse 2:
As I look back, all my dreams turn to dust
My sorrow has broken my will to trust
The waters I traveled seem so far away
But still I’m guided by my heart each day
Bridge:
As I journey the darkness, I keep my faith strong
Still I will hold on to right and wrong
My fate is certain, I will reach the shore
And when I get there I’ll find something more
The Waters I Traveled, Part 3 is a song of sorrowful reflection. The narrator is looking back on the pain and trials of life and a difficult journey. They are reminded of the loneliness and longing they felt while “traveling the waters,” unable to find solace, and find themselves frozen in this state of sorrow and longing. The narrator still has faith that their journey will come to an end and something better is waiting for them beyond the horizon. It is a somber yet hopeful song of reflection and solace.
