Bonnie Beecher - Come wander with me

He said
Come wander with me love
Come wander with me
Away from this sad world
Come wander with me
He came from the sunset
He came from the sea
He came from my sorrow
And can love only me
Composed by Jeff Alexander and sung by Bonnie Beecher

[@areomorales6511]

Her voice is so haunting and foreboding, yet calming and beautiful. For some reason, something's telling this is the song of death since it was also the last episode to to be filmed and aired. And the episode title "Come Wander With Me" just sounds like a farewell, call it greener pastures or oblivion. It's dark and I love it.

[@razmatazz9310]

It was the final episode that was filmed, but there were two other episodes aired after it.

[@voidishprattles4319]

To me. It's about the eternal wander we are locked in with our lover in her and his many infinite forms. We are doomed and blessed by this infinite journey I for one at least in this form, in this time, and in this reality am so glad to have her to be him. I think and more so I hope ultimately that they love us, and this journey while infinite is also firmly in our grasp. We are in control to wander as we please and like a shadow she simply follows me.

I just found out that this song came from The Twilight Zone series. In the backwoods state I'm in I've heard people sing this song and always assumed it was some love song from long ago and passed down. When I found out it came from this show and had such a beautiful voice to sing it, I've never felt happier.

[@palypoopoo]

I have always felt like an alien in this world. I just can't understand how humanity can be so cruel, how people can lie, how we slowly kill our planet, how we stopped caring for one and other, how fast this modern world has become, and how to society money and power became more important than life itself. Sometimes when I hear this song I imagine being picked up by my own spiecies, and taking me back home.

[@derstreber2]

I just watched this episode, and in the spirit of the song and the episode, I decided to write some lyrics of my own that go with what happened. He ran through the woodland. He wanted to flee. He ran without heading, the warning from me. The old man wouldn't help him. He knew not what to do. In rage the wanderer hit him, now murdered where two. The brothers came with vengeance, they found him you see. Each one a gun they carried, and now the dead are three.

Love this episode...so good. Took me a few times to watch it to figure out the deeper meaning.

[@chigjuanspartacus2822]

Sheets1976 what is the meaning?

[@frewofstew6304]

Chigjuan Spartacus I thought he was a character that lives this out over and over because he exists in a song that is played over and over.

[@yvesalrich8843]

Sheels1976 I agree with you.......

[@twocementshoes]

***** people like to seem/feel deep. Although I did just watch this episode and I have been analyzing it. In the lyrics she says "he came from my sorrow", so while it's debatable whether he is a ghost or (as someone mentioned below) just a character in a song that pops into existence everytime the folk song is sung, it could also be argued that she willed this character into existence out of circumstance and he was never really real to begin with. I really like the idea of a folk tale in some mountains somewhere, though, that says "if you sing this song...the wandering man may appear to you in the woods...." that actually just gave me chills typing out. It took me much longer, towards almost the end of the episode to even figure out what was going on, so it's great stuff as far as i'm concerned. Still, it would have been interesting to see the angle of "confused folk archetype who only exists within the limited parameters of a cursed song that brings him into existence whenever sung" would have been pretty cool to explore. For all we know this whole thing is just the hallucination of a grieving wife.

[@mirtom82]

Before Bonnie Beecher was cast as Mary Rachel, another young and aspiring actress and singer auditioned for the role, but was so nervous that she ruined her entire audition. Afterwards, Rod Serling said that they had to reject the young girl, but also said that he will probably regret that decision one day and that young girl would be great star one day. He was right on both accounts. The young girl was then unknown Liza Minelli.

Come Wander With Me is my favorite Twilight Zone episode that I try to keep a tape of, and the song with the same title is a favorite also. I like the actress's version of the haunting song, along with Gary Crosby's singing as well. The comments on the folk singer not being real is interesting . . I had thought everyone but the folk singer were the ghosts.

My dad just went to bed after Perry Mason and twilight zone came on. Heard this song and had to find this song from this episode. Very eerie, very somber. So dope.

I read a very good explanation of this episode somewhere, it's like he's a part of the song (as main character) and since the song is conceived and sung, he's stuck forever in the story of the song, like all characters in songs are, always living the same situation that's being told by the lyrics.

Never watched twilight zone, just heard this song on the radio during a couple mornings when I was sleepless about 7/8 years ago, it would always be at the most quiet time in the morning and I’d always wake up to just hear this song. Always a coincidence but still gives me goosebumps and kinda freaks me out.

[@ButterBaby2u]

I have a few favorites of the Twilight Zone, this being one of them. But I Thought the girl was a real (in black) but when the guitar and song was played it brought her back to a time when she lost her lover and she was young. The girl, folk singer and shop owner were real and everyone else were ghost . Once he purchased that guitar, he became the lover she lost and will lose again, again. all were resurrected with the guitar and that song. Anyone who holds that guitar, will become that lover and will be murdered by her brother's (ghost) murdered. The shop owner knew, that is why he listened to the dogs and started to towards the door. He knew the folk singer had awakened the spirits. That's my take on it!

[@BAYBEKDL]

+ButterBaby2u I like your take on the story.I never looked at it that way.My theory is the folk singer is dead and his past is only haunting him.And he wandering in the woods to relive his evil pass when he killed people.

[@windygraves]

My take on this episode was that Floyd is dead and is reliving how he died without realizing it, along with past events. He fell in love with a girl in the country side such as this one, but she was betrothed to another man. That man and his brothers found out about their love, resulted in Floyd killing one of them and them killing Floyd, then possibly killing her as well. To me, this explains her comments on the song not being able to be his completely as she sings of her own sorrow as well. This also adds to why Floyd is there - his personality of being a big superstar would keep him from accepting his fate of being killed by hillbillies. Floyd would have wanted to go out in a blaze of glory, not shot because he loved a girl. That's just my take on this interesting episode, I love it! :)
