Travelling

You and I we are bound together
By fate and circumstance
On a ship we are sailing by
On a journey of romance
Many seasons and many reasons
We have gone our separate ways
Now we’re yearning to be returning
To find our childhood days

And it’s not for the grieving, no, nor the leaving
But faith in the future and love in the past
That we travel together, through all kinds of weather
‘till finally we found, all our sorrows are drowned
In that old familiar ground we once new.

All these days are filled with haze
And the memory fades from view
Things I miss and I surely wish
I knew everything that now I do
All those years and so many tears
Are not shed or cried in vain
Full circles turn and Yeah how I learn
and relearn everything once again

And it’s not for the grieving, no, nor the leaving
But faith in the future and love in the past
That we travel together, through all kinds of weather
‘till finally we found, all our sorrows are drowned
In that old familiar ground we once new.
