The Voyage Home |
| On a lost, unknown small island in the sea |
| The shore is strewn with airship debris |
| A sole survivor climbs out to the deck |
| He screams out loud as he stares at the wreck |
| «Oh dear lord, what have I done? |
| I’ve brought this on everyone |
| Such despair, though I meant well! |
| I’m so sorry, Michelle…» |
| He mourned off his crewmen and honored their lives |
| They sacrificed all so that he could survive |
| He felt that their deaths would not happen in vain |
| He stiffened his lip and he swallowed his pain |
| He thought of his wife and the letter he wrote |
| That note in a bottle that he sent afloat |
| Had she yet seen it or was there still time? |
| To prove he’s alive? |
| «Oh Michelle, I’m on my way |
| I’ll hold you again someday |
| Over land and the above |
| I will come back home!» |
| So he searched the ships' remains |
| And found a compass and some grain |
| He built a raft from large debris |
| And sailed into the sea |
| (Instrumental) |
| As the weeks passed he tired out |
| His mind was filled with nagging doubt |
| Wearily he washed ashore |
| Beaten to the core |
| «Oh Michelle, I’ve lost my way |
| The sea has awful tricks it plays |
| As I lay here my eyes lie |
| Telling me you’re nigh…» |
| «Thomas, my dear, can it be true? |
| It’s been a year, is that really you? |
| How I have cried as time has passed |
| Now you’re home at last» |
| «Oh Michelle, is this a dream? |
| («Thomas, no, this is real) |
| Am I home? |
| You’re here with me |
| (Here with me) |
| Did you get my note?» |
| «I did but I knew» |
| «Somehow I’d be back with you |
| («How I’d be back with you») |
| Oh my love I’m sorry for this all |
| Please forgive me for my fall |
| I will love you 'til the end |
| I’ll never leave again |
