You think of things that you just don't understand
You try to grasp but they just fall through like sand
The bones that built ya feel like they might go
Just pull on the rudder, put to rest your weary load
You fight the fear, you plow through waves in rows
You tug your ear as you're looking down below
The fish swim circles through your outstretched hand
Your eyes feel heavy as you start to dream of land
Oh! As you sail out in the snow
The wind is singing, low
The tune that you might hum forever
Oh! But the cold is creeping, slow
And slow it takes a hold
Of your aching heart
You breathe in deep and open up your eyes
The water's peaceful as it just keeps slipping by
You wonder how much time is left to go
The stars on the horizon tell you friend, we'll never know
(We just don't know)
You hear what must be sirens singing out
The heart is willing but your head is full of doubt
You drop your anchor and start to dip your toes
The chills might tingle but at least you're not alone
Oh! But there's still so much to see
You dream of being free
As lovely hands sink you down forever
Oh! As you reach out in the dark
Your fingers find the mark
And you pull up fast for air
You think of things that you just don't understand
You try to grasp but they just fall through like sand
You won't stop sailing seas for evermore
Just pull on the rudder looking out for dreamt up shores.
