I spent my time back then thinking of nothing but them The dead ends of my thoughts, the last friends in my head And you heard me, you heard me, you heard me, my friend Sent the ship over seas to save me from death Through the storms I have weathered, through the dark and the rain You sent me the ship that I sail on today And the boat sails on like you sang in your song And my mind feels clearer several years on, yeah And the ship that was sailing on those storm ridden seas Was my heart, and your words gave my heart back to me My mind was a turbine that fueled all the storms And those words were the courage in which calmness took form Through the storms I have weathered, through the dark and the rain You sent me the ship that I sail on today And the boat sails on like you sang in your song And my mind feels clearer several years on, yeah And the ship that was sailing on those storm ridden seas Was my heart, and your words gave my heart back to me I've found life, found the strength in myself to grow up I've found my friends and the strength and the want to live on And the ship that was sailing on storm ridden seas Was my heart, and those words gave my heart back to me Through the storms I have weathered, through the dark and the rain And the boat sails on like you sang in your song And my mind feels clearer several years on And the boat sails on like you sang in your song And my mind feels clearer several years on And the boat sails on like you sang in your song And my mind feels clearer several years on, yeah And the ship that was sailing on those storm ridden seas Was my heart, and your words gave my heart back to me
