Hello Lisa. Good start here on a good sad love song. I do have some "nits" though and so here they are. As is the flow is off, I cannot "sing" along as I read. Your pattern of rhyme doesn't match:

I started with a skeptic's heart
Down a long winding road
I met a man, a gentle soul
He had the look of rock-n-roll [Has a flow so to speak but find the "heart/road/soul/roll" awkward.]

We sailed the oceans him and I
He played his sweet guitar
Those days of sun were heaven sent
My heart was melting as we went [Same here, "I/guitar/sent/went"]

The chorus/hook is really good but right now IMO the story of the young lovers doesn't blend well and I was thrown off by it.

CHORUS
Like happy vagabonds
We rolled along
Our love as free as a summer's breeze
Drifting on a song
Like happy vagabonds


I am trying to get out what I find that is not working but sometimes I cannot find the words other then re-write. smile
