Compass card is spinning, helm is swinging to and fro
Oh, where is the dog star, oh, wheres the moon
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea
Somedays the gales are howling, sometimes the sea is still as glass
Oh, raise the main sail, oh, lash the mast
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea
Now the shorelines beckon, there is a price for being free
Theres a sea bird cryin and theres a ghost wind blowing
And its calling you, to that misty swirling sea
Till the chains of your dreams are broken
No place in this world you can be
Youre a lost sailor, been away too long at sea
Now the shorelines beckon, there is a price for being free
You pay for being free, Ill tell ya freedom dont come easy
Free dont always come for free
Sometimes its hard to know what to believe in
Where to go, who to go, where to be, who to be
That means youre driftin.... driftin
Yeah driftin and dreamin, really goin on a dream now
Really goin on a feelin, really goin on a feelin
Driftin, driftin and dreamin
Cause its a place youve never been
Maybe a place youve never seen now
You can hear them callin on the wind
Driftin and dreamin, driftin and dreamin
Really goin on a dream now, really goin on a dream now
Really goin on a dream now
This must be heaven, tonight I cross the line
You must be the angel, I though I might never find
Was it you I heard singing, Oh while I was chasin dreams
Driven by the wind, like the dust that blows around
And the rain fallin down, but I never know
Got to be heaven, cause heres where the rainbow ends
If this aint the real thing, then its close enough to pretend
When that wind blows, when the nights about to fall
You can hear the silence call, its a certain sort of sound
Like the rain fallin down
Holes in whats left of my reason, holes in the knees of my blues
Odds against me been increasin, but Ill pull through
I never could read no road map, I dont know what the weather might do
But when that rich wind whines and I see the dark star shine
I got a feeling theres no time to lose, no time to lose
Never know now, just dont never know, no
Well its been heaven, but even the rainbows will end
Now my sails are fillin and the wind is willin
And Im as good as gone again
Im still walkin, so Im sure that I can dance
Just a Saint of Circumstance, just a tiger in a trance
And the rain fallin down, well, you never know, just dont know
Listen, sure dont know what I going for, but Im gonna go for it for sure...
