lyrics

So you’re off to Southeast Asia
Put me in your suitcase, take me with you!
Sure we could fly together
But the cabin pressure would turn me blue
You can throw me in the bag check
And know that I’ll be laughing the whole flight through!

And when we land
As we planned
I will be on my way
You’ll go your own way too
I tried my best to stay
But I did not know how
Sorry I let you down

But listen, maybe I can stay in the caves near Vientiane
And you can stay in town
Cause you know I hate to travel with other people
They run me down
And if they’d like to swim, then for the sake of opposition
I would like to drown

That was a joke
But still I dream
I’m falling deep into your eyes
Until I wanna scream
It’s like a pitch black sky
Reaching out for me
As if I’m out of time

And so I continue to walk alone
In the morning dew
And if I don’t see you on the flight back
Happy trails to you!

And when we land
As we planned
I will be on my way
You’ll go your own way too
I tried my best to stay
But I did not know how
And so I let you down
Inside the photograph
You try to make me laugh
But it’s an anxious cry
I fall into your eyes
Until I wanna scream
It’s like a pitch black sky
Reaching out for me
As if I’m out of time
And that’s the story
