I never learned to fly that's my greatest regret
I put it all on the line for an ounce of respect
My hope's in the sky but my boots are on deck
With a hole in my heart and a noose around my neck
Just another scallywag looking for gold
Been a million places seen sights untold
From the Blueridge mountains out traversing the land
To waking on a beach with a drink in each hand
Seen life turn to ash for the sake of the cash
Seen Davey Jones locker and a mermaid splash
If you don't believe in magic can you ever really dream?
Sometimes a happy thought is harder than it seems
I don't mind the dirt if they understand the worth
Life as a husk man nothing could be worse
When my time is up let it go let it be
Sail the long night it's a pirates life for me

Point me to the medicine man don't need a doctor
Its not a real journey unless I got a little za za
Fire in my heart and I blaze a new trail
Then find a new map if the road goes stale
Following the call like a siren's song
Out among the stars is where I belong
Even in the storm I'mma find a way through
No I'm not perfect but my compass Stay True
Grappled in the past of a life of mediocrity
So I chose a path of a troubadour philosophy
Listening to Socrates I know I know nothing
But the star dust gathered in our hair means something
All our tribulations are just a minor threat
If you fishing for some peace you gotta use a wider net
Count all your blessings before you go to bed
I never learned to fly that's my greatest regret
