Just outside the harbor all the ships asleep, maybe one cold watchman walks a lonely beat.
And way out on the water a ship is under sail leaving wavy starlight and a dreamer in her trail.
I wave bye bye, I pray Godspeed, I wish you lovely weather, more luck than you´ll need.
You´ll only sail in circles, so there´s no need to cry, oh, I´ll see you again one day and then I waved bye bye.
The sailing ship reminds me of a certain girl who left a certain dreamer to sail into her world.
I´ve very friendly postcards from very far away but they just remind me of a certain day.
When I waved bye bye, I prayed Godspeed, I wished you lovely weather, more luck than you´ll need.
We only sail in circles, so there´s no need to cry, yes, I´ll see you again one day and then I´ll wave bye bye, bye bye..
