Esther Ofarim - Voyage lyrics

rate me

Through unknown waters

I travel aboard my ship

Sembling many others that float on oceans and seas

for a long time I loaded my ship with all I possessed

Then I painted it with shining colours

taking care to paint it true

And after I waited for a long time

finally came the hour to leave port

Time goes by

And I start fixing my goals

But not that they blend at the start

I now sit in front of this voyage of mine

with no fear of the landing at all

I know my ship's value

and I know the values I carry with me

I travel on

and you keep on missing (listening ?) to me

The voyage is our live

and the ship is yourself

A ship that's never thrown anchor

and a ship that never will do

Nor the anchor of feelings

nor the anchor of desires

Nor the anchor of feelings

nor the anchor of desires

For you shall never give up

For you shall never give up

You shall never tire of dreaming your dreams

You shall never tire of dreaming your dreams
