We stood before the waving sea

and stared at vast infinity,

and praised the life that brought us here

to take our ride upon this sphere,

for when we reach the distant shore I know we'll be returning,

rich from the journey

rich from the journey.



You never know what's up ahead.

The tempest rolls and the skies are red,

but, off into the world that waits

between tomorrow and today,

to seek our fortunes and our fates, driven by this yearning,

to be rich from the journey,

rich from the journey.



... And when it's time to leave the harbor of this dream

we'll have a heart that's filled with memories.



So sail away sweet soul in peace.

Hoist your sails into the breeze.

Beneath these stars so hard to read,

Godspeed the winds that carry me

and tell my friends to look for me for soon I'll be returning,

rich from the journey

rich from the journey

rich from the journey

rich from the journey.
