As a boy, I wondered For many sights to see Always thinking of the ones Waiting home for me Everything returns to me Everything returns to me Ships that sail across the ocean To some far-off land Reach their port, turn around See their homeland bound (?) Everything returns to me Everything returns to me Flowers in the spring start blooming I can see them smile They'll be gone into more seasons But for just a while Everything returns to me Everything returns to me Cloudless nights, I see stars shining Way up in the sky Light and (like in?) the world that's reflecting Things into my eyes Everything returns to me Everything returns to me
