lyrics

He was born to this world of another time
Some would say a crying shame
Roaming like the last lone buffalo on the plains
But never did I see him down upon his luck
Never once in all his days
Did I see that old smile fall from his face

And he said 'nothing lasts for long
only the earth and mountains are bound to remain
And I am setting like the sun
Won't you dance in my shadows to see me on my lonesome way'

So I take my chance and sail as far as I can go
There's no time to hesitate
For there is not a single moment left to waste
Cos you can spend a life-time searching up and down
Keeping your good eye closed
Tell me who you gonna blame if you stay and miss that boat

Cos you know nothing lasts for long
Only the earth and the mountains are bound to remain
And I am setting like the sun
Won't you dance in my shadows to see me on my lonesome way
