I have no recollection of the inspiration for this Ronnie Jeffrey co-write. It’s different, but I like it.

Have you seen the one I love
The minstrel’s only daughter
Her love it calls to me still
From far across the water

If I can bridge the distance
That stretches between us now
I will cross the seven seas
To get back to her somehow

Have you seen the one I seek
The rainbow’s only sunshine
Do you know how much I miss
The way her lips feel on mine

Her laughter always brightens
Even the most cloudy day
Her smile is like a beacon
Calling me from far away

Chorus:
Eyes as blue as mother earth
A voice like the summer wind
Her love is like a guiding light
Calling me home again

Have you seen my everything
My past, present and future
I let her slip away once
But I’m not gonna lose her

My journey’s just beginning
But my love for her is strong
I’m a traveler on my way
To the place where I belong

Chorus:
Eyes as blue as mother earth
A voice like the summer wind
Her love is like a guiding light
Calling me home again
