The Way Behind the Hill

Welcome to my eyes full of joy
 I embrace the sun like a dad with his boy
 How many tales I have in mind
 A road full of folk is in front and behind
 Searching for a new aim
 How many odd fellows I'll meet in this game?
 Whether you roaming or if you have a plan
 Get your stuff, a new day has begun
 A new dawn is again in my eyes
 I've got a smile on my face and the sun in the sky
 Step by step, man by man I see a place
 I can stop here or keep walking my way
 Not all who wonders is lost in the night
 I'm tasting my life like it was the last bite
 Needful of choice he is starving for play
 The seasons change but we are still the same
 When I'm old and feeble and in my sickness I'll rave
 Wrap me in a blanket and give me what I crave
 I have no remorse I've followed my stream
 Don't you see that I gleam?
 When you call for a candle to light the new path
 When you sleep beside a fire
 With some new road's friends
 When the sunshine warm kisses your face
 You feel a voice telling "carry on this way"
 When our world seems too big for a single glance
 Into the storm you think this is a game of chance
 When the rain, so cold, kiss your face
 You feel a voice telling "carry on this way"
 Waiting for another day
 On the road he walks alone
 It's the house where our brother has grown
 When I close my eyes I can see your smile
 When he raises his eyes up to sky
 Then he can see the approaching night
 In these times I miss my fireside
 Ships will come and ships will go
 As long as the sea will play its role
 A trip on sea a trip on shore
 Until my heart will not be sore
