We stand on our old path
Do you see the sun going down?
Only when the last lighthouse becomes dark
Will I look back to you
Even if everything in us is screaming
I'll disappear into the darkness
In another great life
We will see each other again
[Refrain:]
I'm going on the journey
I'm going far across the sea
And you watch me
All the sails are set
And your heart will slowly become heavy
I'm going on the journey
The horizon in sight
I wish you a good life
I'll come back as a star
The sky wears its nightgown
And you carry me into the wide night
You breathe in the cool air
And yet you stay away until morning
If you're looking for me and are lonely
You'll see a bright light on the horizon
[Refrain x 2:]
I'm going on the journey
I'm going far across the sea
And you watch me
All the sails are set
And your heart will slowly become heavy
I'm going on the journey
The horizon in sight
I wish you a good life
I'll come back as a star
