Lyrics
Like a blind man in front of the sea
I'm painting wishes to set myself free
A window to the living, outside of me
A captain's hand is a door from the creeks
Where the memories have their own family trees
When you lose your heart in the grasp of the deep
Show me the ocean that carries your heart
The sky and the water are your body parts
Inhale the voyage right from the start
Slight boat movements turn to restless nights
When the winds of the vastness put up a fight
Trapped inside the cities where the houses can't be watertight
Now an old man, I can't help thinking why
Those blue roads don't wear the mark of time
Tell me who engineered this miracle of life?
I'm sailing away from the land's gravity
I'm sailing closer to my lifelong dreams
