Safe Harbor

Set sail at sunset, my gear is stored away
Friends say its crazy leaving now
But the stars will steer my course
And I trust the winds of change
To bring me safe through any storm

I’m sorry I can’t take you
Its not that I don’t love you
God knows how much I need your loving arms
Safe harbor please
Say you’ll be here for me
And I promise you that I’ll be coming home


Solo round the world, I am not afraid
These ancient maps have shown the way before
I’ve studied tides and read the monographs
This compass heart will see me safe to shore
