Travel Light 04:28
Half empty suitcase Or is it half full It all depends on your perspective Doesn't matter much anyway And needless to say You'd better try to travel light So take one step ahead Travel light and don't look back Leave your past behind Forgive, but don't forget Step off the beaten track Choose the side roads Watch your step There's nothing left to hide I'll stay right by your side It won't take much to travel light We've left a lot of things at home Sometimes home means Not at home at all Some uncharted territory Yet any crowded place Just some whistlestops from here Tell me brother where are you bound So take one step ahead Travel light and don't look back Leave your past behind Forgive, but don't forget Step off the beaten track Choose the side roads Watch your step There's nothing left to hide I'll stay right by your side It won't take much to travel light Some run for their lives Some stumble and fall Some will lose their way in the rain Some live for the day Some waste it all away Some will never ever learn Some won't even shed a tear in all their lives While some just try to travel light So take one step ahead Travel light and don't look back Leave your past behind Forgive, but don't forget Step off the beaten track Choose the side roads Watch your step There's nothing left to hide I'll stay right by your side It won't take much to travel light Half empty suitcase Or is it half full It all depends on your perspective

about

The title-track of this EP has already been written in the early days of Starfish64 in 2008. It started its life as two individual songs. First there was "A Closer Look" which is basically "Travel Light" with a different set of lyrics. "Travel Light" itself had a different melody at first. At some point it seemed like that melody didn't quite transport the lyrics equally. So finally I decided to use the backing track of "A Closer Look" for "Travel Light". Although this song always meant a lot to me, it only appeared as a b-side to "Lost Boat" on Bandcamp and remained mostly unnoticed. The 2023 version finally does justice to this beautiful track with full state-of-the-art production and arrangement.
