[Verse 1]
Who knows how long, before my ship comes in?
No one can say I didn't try
Lost all my money when they took my job
I lost my faith in God
Who can I run to, where can I turn?
Now the bridges are falling, I'm watching them burn

[Chorus]
(I'll return to her) when the journey is over
(I'll return to her) when it's all said and done
(I'll return to her) now I know that I finally can trust in someone

[Verse 2]
Where are the people, that I called my friends?
I try to knock on every door
Out on the edge, I find myself alone
I'm riding out thе storm
I am a stranger washed on the shorе
And I feel like I really can't fight anymore

[Chorus]
(And I'll return to her) when the journey is over
(I'll return to her) when it's all said and done
(I'll return to her) now I know that I finally can trust in someone

[Verse 3]
Who knows how long, before my ship comes in?
No one can say I didn't try
I don't believe in much anymore
But I know what I'm feeling deep down inside

[Chorus/outro]
(I'll return to her) when the journey is over
(I'll return to her) when it's all said and done
(I'll return to her) now I know that I finally can trust in someone
(I'll return to her) when the journey is over
(I'll return to her) it's all said and done
(I'll return to her) now I know that I finally can trust in someone
(I'll return to her)
(I'll return to her) I'll return to her...
(I'll return to her) I'll return to her...
(I'll return to her) I believe, that I finally can trust in someone
(I'll return to her)
(I'll return to her...)
