An old photo in my hand
_____
When we barely knew who we were
_____
Five summers and we were endless
_____
Till each went their own way
_____
Tim's in Freiburg now, Tobi in Berlin
_____
Philipp became a lawyer, only Hannah stayed
_____
Manu wanted to be a dancer, now he's doing business admin
_____
Time passes so fast in the rearview mirror
_____
That's how the years keep running across the land
_____
That's how the new begins after the old
_____
We're on the journey, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
_____
We start again, almost give up
_____
We stumble and fall and pull ourselves back up
_____
That's how the years go, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
_____
Was home for a bit, hadn't been here in ages
_____
Where stone on stone still stands like before
_____
The old street's almost like back then
_____
And yet so much has spun around
_____
Kathi's got kids now, we hardly keep in touch
_____
Kolja does social work and Mark didn't make it
_____
Clemens is traveling through France, still chasing his luck
_____
And I play my songs and think back to you
_____
And everyone has stories they'd love to tell
_____
Time passes so fast in the rearview mirror
_____
That's how the years keep running across the land
_____
That's how the new begins after the old
_____
We're on the journey, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
_____
We start again, almost give up
_____
We stumble and fall and pull ourselves back up
_____
That's how the years go, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
_____
I play my songs here and think back to you
_____
To all our dreams, to every moment
_____
No matter where we land, it all has a purpose
_____
Every journey leads somewhere
_____
That's how the years keep running across the land
_____
That's how the new begins after the old
_____
We're on the journey, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
_____
We start again, almost give up
_____
We stumble and fall and pull ourselves back up
_____
That's how the years go, and someday
_____
We arrive, we arrive
