So young and naïve
a hero’s life in mind
No reason to grieve
leaving my old life behind – don’t shed no tear
The wind and the stars
will guide me on this quest
I fear no scars
nor hunger, pain nor death – I don’t lose faith
They said: “You won’t make it!”
They said: “You will die!”
No one thought I’d come back
yet here I am
I survived
I returned
now I yearn
to leave again
and set the sail
blaze a trail
make my way
to sweet and foreign lands
You wouldn’t believe
the things that I have seen
You couldn’t conceive
the places I have been – beyond the sea
They said: “You won’t make it!”
They said: “You will die!”
No one thought I’d come back
yet I’m alive
I survived
I returned
now I yearn
to leave again
and set the sail
blaze a trail
make my way
to sweet and foreign lands
