The ripples in the water
Carry with the tide
The stories of the ocean
And the distant lands it hides
The islands in the distance are
Calling out my name
I sit here in the harbor
And watch the ships come in
They come to fill their bellies
And then sail away again
I wonder if you're coming soon to
Sail away with me
Cause you say that you're a sailor
Won't you sail me out to sea
To see whatever we could be
I got my eyes on the horizon
Got your hands upon the sail
We'll build a family with the salmon and the whales
And the ripples in the water
Are reflected in your eyes
They're green and gray and silver
And your hands are worn and wise
Your voice is soft and chilling like the
Wind upon the waves
The sunset it is waiting
For us to start our journey west
We'll get out of this harbor
And then figure out the rest
I packed my bags years ago
I'm ready for the sea
Cause you say that you're a sailor
Won't you sail me out to sea
To see whatever we could be
I got my eyes on the horizon
Got your hands upon the sail
We'll build a family with the salmon and the whales
Oh, cause our love is as true
Oh, as the ocean is blue
And the ripples in the water
Are turning gray
From the storm on the horizon
You turn away
And the sunset glow is fading now
I lost you in the night
Cause I thought you were my sailor
Thought you'd sail away with me
Turns out my ocean was a fantasy
Cause when I got out of the harbor
Was the only one a-sail
My true companions were the salmon and the whales
Cause oceans aren't always blue
Promises aren't always true
I won't sail away with you
But those islands
Are still in view
I'll send ripples in the water
Across the seven seas
As I climb aboard my sailboat
Finally feeling free
