The plane is waiting, you must to go
   'Goodbye I'm gonna miss you'
   And all the things you say at a leaving
   Ah just turn your head and walk away
  
   Goodbye little Columbus
   Goodbye, I'll see you one day
   Goodbye little Columbus
   Travelling, just travelling
  
   That certain moment, the final call
   And that desperate search for 'C'est la vie'
   Oh what you'd give to hear of a slight delay
   Ah just turn your head and walk away
   Walk away, just walk away
  
   Goodbye little Columbus
   Goodbye, I'll see you one day
   Goodbye little Columbus
   Travelling, just travelling
   You've made up your mind
   And you've got to go
