Sam's Road of Tales

Lyrics

### Epic Ballad: "Sam's Journey Home"

**(Verse 1: Rhode Island)**
*(Sam, softly)*
Hey Dad, I’m back on the road,
Rhode Island’s charm, where my heart glowed.
At a quaint café, I met a wise soul,
With tales of the sea that made me feel whole.
He spoke of the tides and the lives they’ve led,
In that cozy corner, my curiosity fed.

**(Chorus: Sam)**
So here I am, driving home tonight,
With stories of life, under stars so bright.
Meeting fascinating folks with tales to share,
Every state, a new adventure, everywhere.

**(Verse 2: New York)**
*(Sam, more animated)*
New York’s hustle, the city alive,
At a street fair, I felt the vibe.
A painter from Brooklyn, with dreams so bold,
Shared stories of colors and secrets untold.
He spoke of his journey, the art that he makes,
In the heart of the city, where passion awakes.

**(Chorus: Sam)**
So here I am, driving home tonight,
With stories of life, under stars so bright.
Meeting fascinating folks with tales to share,
Every state, a new adventure, everywhere.

**(Verse 3: Pennsylvania)**
*(Sam, nostalgic)*
Pennsylvania’s hills, where the rivers flow,
At a local bar, I met an old pro.
A storyteller, with a voice like a song,
He shared of his travels, where he felt he belonged.
With laughter and wisdom, he painted the night,
In those fleeting moments, everything felt right.

**(Chorus: Sam)**
So here I am, driving home tonight,
With stories of life, under stars so bright.
Meeting fascinating folks with tales to share,
Every state, a new adventure, everywhere.

**(Verse 4: Ohio)**
*(Sam, reflective)*
Ohio’s charm, where the fields stretch wide,
At a county fair, I felt the pride.
A farmer with stories of seasons and change,
Told of the earth and its beauty, so strange.
With laughter and kindness, he showed me the way,
In the heart of his land, I wanted to stay.

**(Chorus: Sam)**
So here I am, driving home tonight,
With stories of life, under stars so bright.
Meeting fascinating folks with tales to share,
Every state, a new adventure, everywhere.

**(Verse 5: Washington)**
*(Sam, eager)*
Now Washington’s calling, Bothell’s in sight,
At “The Midnight Rose,” the vibe feels just right.
An artist with visions, painting the sky,
Shared dreams of tomorrow, with a hopeful sigh.
The beauty of home is where I long to be,
But these stories will stay, a part of me.

**(Chorus: Sam)**
So here I am, driving home tonight,
With stories of life, under stars so bright.
Meeting fascinating folks with tales to share,
Every state, a new adventure, everywhere.

**(Outro: Sam, softer)**
*(Sam, looking in the rearview)*
Hey Dad, I’ve had my share of fun,
These moments we cherish, we’ve only begun.
I promise to keep some secrets in the dark,
Just know I’ve lived, I’ve left my mark.

**(Dad, supportive)**
*(Dad, gently)*
I’m glad you’re out there, making your way,
Just keep the details a l
