Version 2
(Verse 1)
Surely, I was near the end of the world,
It felt like decades since I’d seen dry land,
In all directions, only water, more water,
But I kept chasing that sunset, held tight to my plan.
(Chorus)
I’m lost at sea, drifting endlessly,
Only the sun and moon keeping me company,
I’d trade this ocean blue for a patch of green,
Oh, to feel the earth beneath my feet again.
(Verse 2)
“What if,” I asked the waves as they passed,
My mind spun wild with theories to chase,
Sent here to explore, but all I found was fear,
Afraid the best was behind, and more nothing was near.
(Chorus)
I’m lost at sea, drifting endlessly,
Only the sun and moon keeping me company,
I’d trade this ocean blue for a patch of green,
Oh, to feel the earth beneath my feet again.
(Bridge)
My home was a shelter, crude on the shore,
Each plank placed with love, each stone a chore,
Now I float in this boat, with less than before,
Less storage, less food, no flowers anymore.
(Verse 3)
I miss the trees, the hills, the random blooms,
The way the land stretched out with a welcome tune,
And here in this vast blue, I’m all alone,
No buzzin’ bees, no rabbits to roam.
(Chorus)
I’m lost at sea, drifting endlessly,
Only the sun and moon keeping me company,
I’d trade this ocean blue for a patch of green,
Oh, to feel the earth beneath my feet again.
(Outro)
Nothing startles me now, no moans, no hisses,
But I do miss sleep, and all of its blisses,
Crazy thoughts in this endless sea,
Dreaming of a world that once held me free.
