Jupiter Night

You can see for a hundred miles

On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

As we look to the wind for a sigh

And we wave our last goodbye


It’s a fact we may never return

All the bridges behind us

We’ve burned

And the sun going down

Is a constant reminder

Of freedom

And all of the things that we learn

Will serve as pure gold in return

As we sail to the edge of a world

Where no one has been to


On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

And the air is so clear

You can see for a hundred miles

On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

As we look to the wind for a sigh

And we wave our last goodbye

I’ve just said goodbye to my friends

The journey is about to begin

As the captain and crewmen

Are boarding their ship

Headed nowhere


The boy serves the captain his tea

The first mate is looking at me

He seems to suspect

That I’ve been neglecting

My duties


On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

And the air is so clear

I’ve just said goodbye to my friends

The journey is about to begin

As the captain and crewmen

Are boarding their ship

Headed nowhere


The boy serves the captain his tea

The first mate is looking at me

He seems to suspect

That I’ve been neglecting

My duties

On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

And the air is so clear

You can see for a hundred miles

On a Jupiter night in a ship

Headed straight for nowhere

As we look to the wind for a sigh

And we wave our last goodbye

Ah we look to the wind for a sigh

As we wave our last goodbye
