Sail Away Songtext
von Audrey Horne
Sail Away Songtext
I don′t need to write it down, I've known these lines by heart for years
But everytime I try they seem to lack a certain elegance
Anyway I wanted you to know that I′ll be staying in this year
Cause I believe you're better off without me here
I'm sinking
You′re fading
This ship′s been lost at sea
I'm drowning
You′re leaving
That's how it is
Treading water′s never been a thing for me
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
Thought I found myself, had a bucketful, and threw it all away
So long, it′s all gone now
This year, yeah, I spent it all
I only did it to prove I could
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
I'm sinking
You′re fading
This ship′s been lost at sea
I'm drowning
You′re leaving
That's how it is
Treading water′s never been a thing for me
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away
To find another place where I can stay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
But everytime I try they seem to lack a certain elegance
Anyway I wanted you to know that I′ll be staying in this year
Cause I believe you're better off without me here
I'm sinking
You′re fading
This ship′s been lost at sea
I'm drowning
You′re leaving
That's how it is
Treading water′s never been a thing for me
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
Thought I found myself, had a bucketful, and threw it all away
So long, it′s all gone now
This year, yeah, I spent it all
I only did it to prove I could
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
I'm sinking
You′re fading
This ship′s been lost at sea
I'm drowning
You′re leaving
That's how it is
Treading water′s never been a thing for me
So long it's been a very good year
And I know it takes a lifetime to repay
All I ever wanted was to sail away
To find another place where I can stay
All I ever wanted was to sail away, oh
But I got caught up in the waves along the way
