The Traveller Songtext
von The Moffs
The Traveller Songtext
Rode on the wings of the firebird
Seeker always reborn
Seen through the eyes of a traveller
With no thought of return
And I believed in an open book
All trust in the unknown
Chasing a whim to forgotten shores
Where knowledge must be found
With hidden sight and sound
Where history till the ground
Having a look for I must be sure
I haven′t missed the boat
Take what I can while it's offered me
Things like never before
The balance might tip and it all will come
Crashing to the ground
Without the risk nought is lost or found
Our blind hands the stone
That never can be owned
And each one calls it home
I begged you to change such a lonely world
The fire and the ice
Painting the pain with a brighter glow
No need for sacrifice
Here in this world where the lines are drawn
Between the left and right
Seen through the eyes of a traveller
With no thought of return
Seeker always reborn
Seen through the eyes of a traveller
With no thought of return
And I believed in an open book
All trust in the unknown
Chasing a whim to forgotten shores
Where knowledge must be found
With hidden sight and sound
Where history till the ground
Having a look for I must be sure
I haven′t missed the boat
Take what I can while it's offered me
Things like never before
The balance might tip and it all will come
Crashing to the ground
Without the risk nought is lost or found
Our blind hands the stone
That never can be owned
And each one calls it home
I begged you to change such a lonely world
The fire and the ice
Painting the pain with a brighter glow
No need for sacrifice
Here in this world where the lines are drawn
Between the left and right
Seen through the eyes of a traveller
With no thought of return
