Travelogue

(oehler/goedken)

By the time the moon has set on Cairo
I will already be walking in Berlin
When the wind blows sand through streets in Rio
I will already be driving in London

I?ll travel ’round the world
In the hope that I will find you
One day you’ll turn around
And find me there behind you
Past people and the places
Through cities and the streets
A million different places
Just so we could meet

By the time the stars shall rise in Shanghai
I will already be moving through New York
When the rain runs down the alleys in Paris
I will be riding the train to Tokyo

To travel ’round the globe
On the chance that I will find you
Someday you’ll look around
And see me there beside you
Past the figures and the places
Through temples and the fairs
A million different hours
I will find you there

By the time the sun casts shade in Hong Kong
I will already be flying to Sydney
When snow starts to fall on the crowds in Seoul
I will already be waiting in Prague

I?ll travel ’round the world
In the hope that I will find you
One day you’ll turn around
And I’ll be there behind you
From villages to hamlets
Over dirt and the concrete
A million different moments
All so we could meet

[EO] This is sort of the quintessential Null Device song. We’ve reworked it and expanded it on EPs and for live use.  But..synthesizers, drum machines, classical arabic instruments, violin solos, globe-hopping lyrics…it’s basically everything Null Device is in a nutshell.
