And you know I’ve placed my feet
in both the world’s great oceans
and as you wish me out to sea
I feel like I’ve been chosen
With seaweed strands
caught in my hands
I have no use
for well laid plans
I float with the waves
as ships crest the horizon
a great field of sails
and stern setting forth with lessons learned
with lessons learned
From the bow I’ll be there watching
for you as you wait
on the harbor I’m saltwater you anticipate
anxious waiting, desperate hoping
I come back the same
waters changing on the high seas
I return unscathed
And the anchors are all weighed
the ships slip out of harbor
and as I stand here in their wake
the moon draws back the water
With castle sand
clutched in my hands
I’ll try to build
our new home land
I float with the waves
as ships crest the horizon
a great field of sails
and stern setting forth with lessons learned
with lessons learned
