You smile at me
This lone sailor with memories
Special to see you, been a long while
Seems an eternity
We sailed together then went our own ways
Through life's lonely seas
This lone sailor, lonely sailor
I needed to be free
This lone sailor, lonely sailor
Knows you needed more from me - than I could be
Remember being young, being free
Planning to share our dreams
We danced, we roamed, through ocean foam
Tides changed, so did we
You hoped to settle, I yearned to sail
Tears fell on dark seas
This lone sailor... lonely sailor
I needed to be free
This lone sailor, lonely sailor
Knows you needed more from me - than I could be
Yet here we are sharing smiles and tears
Both of us caring that much is clear
With our worlds spinning fast with highs and lows
Is our story past or can it grow
Why did I chase crazy schemes
While losing precious dreams
When I recognized the hurt in your eyes
Was too late, you'd drifted from me
Like shells on the shore, together no more
We were broken, or so it seemed
This lone sailor, lonely sailor
I needed to be free
Now this sailor, lonely sailor
No longer roams the seas
Shall we take one more chance tenderly, hopefully
Beyond the lonely seas
