Lyrics

Days Are Numbers (The Traveller)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The traveller is always leaving town

He never has the time to turn around

And if the road he's taken isn't leading anywhere

He seems to be completely unaware

The traveller is always leaving home

The only kind of life he's ever known

When every moment seems to be

A race against the time

There's always one more mountain left to climb

Days are numbers

Watch the stars

We can only see so far

Someday

You'll know where you are

Remember

Days are numbers

Count the stars

We can only go so far

One day

You'll know where you are

The traveller awaits the morning tide

He doesn't know what's on the other side

But something deep inside of him

Keeps telling him to go

He hasn't found a reason to say no

The traveller is only passing through

He cannot understand your point of view

Abandoning reality, unsure of what he'll find

The traveller in me is close behind

Days are numbers

Watch the stars

We can only see so far

Someday

You'll know where you are

Remember

Days are numbers

Count the stars

We can only go so far

One day

You'll know where you are
