I dreamed of a little boat
Sailed it out into the ocean
Didn't go too fast
Didn't know where I was going
Thought I'd take a plane
But I'd rather count the waves
I thought of things to come
All the stress and the emotion
Of a future self and had the strange notion
Where I am today isn't where I'm supposed to be
But what is life
If not to be enjoyed
And we're constantly employed
By the fears of what's to come
And what am I if I live in my mistakes
Instead of each breath I take
Oh don't let me hide away
I peered over the edge into a sea of unknowing
My own reflection so I better get going
To find a place where I'll finally feel free
I don't need it all
All the pressure and the madness
Of this world and what it tries to push upon us
Yeah I'd rather float here peacefully
'Cause what is life
If not to be enjoyed
And we're constantly employed
By the fears of what's to come
And what am I if I live in my mistakes
Instead of each breath I take
Oh don't let me hide away
So sail out don't regret it
You are
You are worth it
Don't you dare forget it
'Cause what is life
If not to be enjoyed
And we're constantly employed
By the fears of what's to come
And what am I if I live in my mistakes
Instead of each breath I take
Oh don't let me hide away
