lyrics

WHERE THE WORRIES VANISH
I WANT TO GO AWAY,
'CAUSE MY SOUL IS HURTING
PLEASE SHOW ME THE WAY.
I CAN'T HATE MYSELF ANYMORE,
ACROSS THE SEA, I'LL FIND YOU ON THE SHORE.

MY LITTLE BOAT IS SHIPPING,
COME ON TO THE EAST!,
NOW, THE STARS ARE SHINNING,
NOBODY CAN SEE
I'M ALONE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DARK
SMOKING PIPE AND WEARING A SAILOR HAT

LOOK! THE FOAM IN THE WIND
MAKES ME FEEL REALLY FREE,
WHILE THE WAVES PUSH THE BOAT
INSIDE THE SEA.

AND I SEE A LITTLE FISH
JUMPING UP SO CLOSE TO ME.
I CAN FEEL ALL THE DROPS
IN MY FEET.

A THOUSAND OF SPLINTERS
OUR BOAT WAS BROKE
A HUNDRED OF PIECES NAILED, NAILED IN OUR HEARTS
OUR BOAT, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEA
IS A CHANCE FOR US TO AVOID THE STORM

A COOL BREEZE IN MY FACE
MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE AGAIN,
WITH MY WHITE SHIRT BLUE STRIPES
UNDER THE RAIN.

SAILING AIMLESSLY
WITH A HUGE WAVE IN FRONT OF ME,
I’VE GOT NO FEAR
'CAUSE AT THE END YOU WILL BE HERE.

AND I KNOW THAT I LOST YOU
A LONG TIME AGO
BUT THEY SAY
THAT THE TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS

IN MY MIND I CAN SEE YOU
IN THE SHORE WAITING FOR ME,
I DON'T KNOW
IF IT'S REAL OR IT’S A DREAM.

IN MY DREAMS I FOUND YOU
WAITING FOR ME ON THE SHORE.
I CAN SEE YOUR EYES
AND I TAKE YOUR HAND.
