-Pretty much the same for the next verse-
If you find it's me you're missing, if you're hoping I'll return.
To your thoughts I'll soon be listning, in the road, I'll stop and turn.
Then the wind will set me racing as my journey nears its end

Bind me not to the pasture, chain me not to the plow.
Set me free to find my calling and I'll return to you somehow.
