Unni Wilhelmsen Journey song lyrics

You're on a journey through night and day

And there used to be this passenger aboard

You don't know anymore when you'll reach the bay

Or even if you'll ever get ashore

An ocean with waves like this sure can get mean

There's nothing to do but to follow the stream

No, there's nothing to do but to follow the stream

You are the ship and now it's abandoned

But the passenger has left behind his things

Maybe he's safe or maybe he's stranded

He flew away on a pair of black wings

And here you are yet not quite alone

You look at the sky, but the sun is gone

Yeah, you look at the sky, but the sun is gone

The things he left you are memories and words

But you have to have your ship float

THe deck is covered by greedy black birds

and your only hope is one small lifeboat

You're looking around, but no land is in sight

Yeah, You're looking around, but no land's in sight

A lonely life boat away from it's ship

From the cargo it's about to sink

You stand by the rail with your hand on your hip

And keep it in sight while you try not to think

The waiting birds have now all disappeared

And the emptiness inside you, it feels a bit wierd

Yes, the emptiness inside, it feels a bit wierd

The passenger is missing and now his things too

The luggage of thoughts are travelling alone

Last on your ship there is only you

And the words and the promises are finally gone

You have to get rid of the things in your way

To be able to hoist the recovering sail

And in the end you will find your own harboring bay

But the feelings still return as the night kills the day
