The Riverside Walkers - The Little Boat

The star you see shining above us
Up in the dark dome of the sky
Years alone, I follow its brightness
No hope or country, with nothing to hide
Beyond the houses, beyond the manors
Cities and parishes everywhere
Year after year, it seems like forever
But never takes me anywhere
The little boat that I’ve sailed with when I was younger
It doesn’t want to reach any shore
It doesn’t want to get tied at the docks of port towns
Alone it spins like a ghost in epochs
Since I was a child I was enchanted
By distant places and ocean depth
I was spellbound by the horizon
The dark endless line embracing the earth
Inside my head the famous explorers
Raiding the corners of the earth
I got to leave you. I have to go now
And if you’ll miss me, I might return
The little boat that I’ve sailed with when I was younger
It doesn’t want to reach any shore
It doesn’t want to get tied at the docks of port towns
Alone it spins like a ghost in epochs
