i pack my things up
i'm leaving tomorrow,
i'm going away
dear friend, cheer up
you know that i love you
i'll see you some day


and oh, how that day will be brimming with joy!
the tearful reunion of a girl and a boy
the journey will end but for now i must go
don't ask me why 'cause my heart
it says you know


don't cry, my love
i'll think of you always,
your heart in my pack
hear me, my love
i'll come back to you
with the wind at my back


and oh, how that day will be brimming with joy!
the tearful reunion of a girl and a boy
the journey will end but for now i must go
don't ask me why 'cause my heart
it says you know


i pack my things up
i'm leaving tomorrow,
i'm going away
dear friend, cheer up
you know that i love you
i'll see you some day
you know that i love you
