lyrics

Cutting all the lines tied to the dock
I gave us a push and we were off
Raise the sail up the mast
Hope that our rations last

Watching all the islands floating by
'Til there's nothing left but waves and sky
'Way from the shores and sand
Far from the things on land
Oh to be free, only a speck on the sea

Point our ship into the setting sun
Never looking back where we came from
Only to have the stars
Lead us right off the chart

And the storms that lashed the sides
Left us drifting when the wind died
On currents that came from unknown
To places the map hadn't shown
Oh who'd want to be, lost on an endless sea

But we braved through the winds and the tides
And against all the odds we survived
Only to have the stars
Lead us right back to the start
To the place we'd flown
Only to find home
