Steady As She Goes

The journey starts inside the man
Who dreams of lands unknown
Where the charts say oceans end
That’s where he sails alone
The call that others never hear
His ears cannot ignore
It comes across the crashing waves
From strange and distant shores
And guides him on his course

And I’m sailing onwards
Steady as she goes
Where the waters lead me
Heaven only knows
Free to chase the four winds
That’s the life I chose
Ever sailing onward
Steady as she goes

When the moonlight stirs the salt
That moves within your veins
Your wanderlust is more
Than all the harbors can contain
And over that horizon line
You follow fickle stars
Arriving’s not the pleasure
It’s the traveling so far
I’m traveling so far

And I’m sailing onwards
Steady as she goes
Where the waters lead me
Heaven only knows
Free to chase the four winds
That’s the life I chose
Ever sailing onward
Steady as she goes
