He was named nineteenhundred 'TD' 
                                 
in the ship`s belly lies his cradle 
                               
had no birthday and no land of home
                   
the ocean has no bounds
                 
virginian sounds 

                                  
and he faced the world from inside 
                               
the ball-room of splendid skies 
                      
and on the grand piano 
                              
his hands light as butterflies 
                                       
he played for the rich and for the poor 
                           
thrilling the hearts of all 
                                        
the world could have been beneath his feet
                 
searching the call
                    
the voice of the sea 

                           
old chandelier tells a story
                            
old piano still echoes in here 
                            
old ship lies rusted in the port
                          
and the best years fade away
                         
the splendour has gone 

                                
not what he saw could hold him back
                          
it was what he didn`t see 
                             
there was no end in this town 
                 
keys so eternally 
                        
but this was god`s piano 
                             
he heard on the gangway there 
                         
he couldn`t leave forever 
                  
the sea to somewhere
 
            
bow and stern
                   
all the wishes between
            
(wishes to yearn) 
                        
the world outside is a dream
                         
(a lone dream, lone dream) 
                                  
and when the whole world`s leaving 
                          
the music will always stay 
                          
and if a story`s worth to tell
                   
the end will be far away
                                   
the final notes lie mute upon the sand
 
                   
when land is a ship too big
                   
a woman out of reach 
               
a journey too far
               
a whiff too strong
                      
he didn`t exist for anyone

bow and stern
                   
all the wishes between
            
(wishes to yearn) 
                        
the world outside is a dream

the end will be far away
                                   
the final notes lie mute upon the sand

                  
and in this lonesome end
                       
final notes lie mute upon sand..
