Nikki was offered financial backing for recording twice but turned those corporations down until she studied about such a change in her career. Returned to CA after college working performing music up & down West Coast and was again offered financial funding again so she looked into the recording business. Accepted another financial offer from small CA business credited in an agreement just to prove merit of her music.
Nikki Hornsby accomplished this with a limited USA offline release and major support from Europe offline radio charting her music to win awards overseas while she worked full time performing in USA.
Finally in 2004 accepting the challenge to record under her own direction 10 original songs but went to test market for other artists to release in USA. Accomplished in Europe and is licensing all her hundreds of songs to interested artists. As a Grammy voting member she continues to vote for the awards given to her piers. She still has hope that her hundreds of market tested (un recorded) songs of Pop, rock, a cepella, novelty tunes, to folk and Americana, will one day see studio time.

Travel On
Nikki Hornsby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So let me try to help you walk through that door
Travel on travel on
Don't stop at storms within the night
There's a callin' in the wind;
Don't stop at storms don't dim the light
Hold tight and you will mend.
Travel on sweet traveler
Travel on sweet traveler
Real love's around the bend
A promise wise our maker claims
There's a reason for your pain
& if your heart were closed to love
No happiness you'd gain.
Chorus: travel on....
A promise made a promise keep
There still are miles to go
A promise made stay on your feet
All struggel's worth i'm told
Chorus: travel on...
But when the journey's end is near
The sun will shine so bright
And all the travel that you've made
No darkness left in sight
& all the struggle and the pain
Will fade as answers come.
For nothing's quite as sweet as this
When you know your journey has just begun.
Travel on travel on travel on.
