Lopend op de dijk
Met de Noordzee aan je voeten
En het IJsselmeer zo rustig aan de andere kant
Lopend op de dijk
Op je blonde blote voeten
Verlangend naar die ander aan de overkant
Lopend op de Afsluitdijk
Met de Noordzee aan je voeten
En die andere zee zo rustig aan de andere kant
Lopend op de dijk
Om een nieuw leven te begroeten
Neemt de afstand tussen jou en mij de overhand
Josje, Josje, Joshua, Joshua
Lopend op de dijk
Zonder berouw en zonder moeten
Zonder dwang, zonder belofte van de overkant
Lopend op de dijk
Met de ogen die de nacht verzoeten
Reikt jouw hand alleen nog naar die andere hand
Lopend op de Afsluitdijk
Met de Noordzee aan je voeten
En die andere zee zo wachtend aan de andere kant
Lopend op de dijk
Geef je me stille kleine groeten
Maar jijzelf bent al vertrokken naar een ander land
Josje, Josje, Joshua, Joshua
