The alan parson project days are numbers (the traveller) lyrics

Chris Rainbow - Lead Vocals



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
