The hills and trees keep floating by A handful houses do the same A single lamp post caught my eye Before it whirls out of the frame And faceless people, large and small You see them bobbing to and fro I do not know their stories at all Nor where and when they want to go As for myself, I sit here on this train I’ve been here since my childhood’s dawn If I don’t get off soon I’ll go insane My faith is leaving me, can’t you see how I am torn I’ve had my chances many a time To leave this dusty coach behind But fear has always denied me to climb Down on the platform; free of mind I share this coach with people so strange They never speak nor bat an eye Their stiff demeanour never change Their faces blurred; I wonder why Then sounds of steps are heard down the aisles It’s the inspector on his round He stamps my ticket without a smile and tells me where my soul is bound I want to scream: ‘I don’t belong in here You have to let me off this train' But anger never overcome my fear So I am stuck aboard, oh sweet lord, that much is plain Still after all the years that have passed my dreams keep playing scenes for me Of riding down a hillside real fast Of one sweet morning to be free

Seething waters Demand I return to shore Howlin’ northern winds Ask me what I am looking for Lightning strikes above Tries to set my good ship ablaze There’s no rest for me at all No end to the troubles I face Still the whispering Song drives me on Still its spell keeps me moving How I miss You now that I’m gone Now it seems I feel the Gods reproving Never give my thoughts to the Sea Never loose my torchlight Will I ever know I'm free? Can I ever win this tough fight? Soon I’ll get there To the loneliest Isle on Earth Leaving ship behind To seek out the song and mirth Through the forest to the Cottage of Lost Play I’ll present my errantry And the reason for coming to stay
