Sailor

Well, I bought me a boat
Now I call myself a sailor
Watch me in my sailor hat
As I wave goodbye
Now I’m waiting for a good tide
To pull me from the harbor
and a strong wind to carry me away

Chorus: I make it up as I go
Where I'm going I don't know
I don't know and I don't care
I'll find out when I get there

Now I'm happy in my little boat
But you say that's illusion
Just a sweet little story
That I tell myself every day
And I got a tattoo of an anchor
up around my shoulder
and another of a bird as it flies away

Chorus

Now I'm staring out the porthole
In the darkest dead of night
With no moon or stars to show me the horizon
I’m getting cold and I’m thinking back
On everything I left behind
And I set a course into the sun that's finally rising

It took a while, now I know
Yeah, I know just where to go
Got no time to spare
If I'm going to find you there
I've got no time to spare
