~ lyrics ~
So if anyone of you ever remembered
The taste and the thrill of the first wander
You might have incurred
The everlasting restlessness
And this one of you would still remember
The bare Moon
Slowly rolling out of his burrow
Falling and tapering down into the nearest dawn

So off you go the cold-eyed terror of the infinite sadness
Bringing the world down to its knees

There's a dying child
Wrapped up in me
There's a dying child
Right there, right there in me

So when I saw that Moon for the first time
I was absolutely transfixed
It was like a scream of the flickering screens of imagination
Saying 'Hey you, bored man, try some living!'
It is no time to waste
When you wasted much time
It was when the nomad reached that moment
The end of the paranoia
Then the roamer said: 'I'm moving on'

'Never was a sailor'
- 'Come on, let's have a cigar'
'Never really learnt to fly'
- 'You're suicidal'
'Never ever base-jumped'
- 'Come on, be serious right now'
'Never really played guitar'
- 'You vagabond'

Off you go the cold-eyed terror of the infinite sadness
Bringing the world down to its feet

There's a dying child
Wrapped up in me
There's a dying child
Right there, right there in me
And then you think so many nights
Tryin' to know yourself
And then you find your foolish ties
Ride on there, ride on there,
Ride on there, ride

And so the wanderer walked on
Towards the kingdom of no man's land
