I Go Away

I go away, said the little child
Tell only you and no one else
I go until there will be a little island
Where I will be happy

I go away, the people here
The way they look at me, I feel it's strange
I go until there will be a little island
Then I will write to you

I didn't say, I didn't tell him
There are no islands
I only said "Boy, farewell!"
I'll wait for your letter

I go away, the people here
The way they look at me, I feel it's strange
I go until there will be a little island
I will write to you

I didn't say, I didn't tell him
There are no islands
I only said, "Boy, farewell!"
I'll wait for your letter
