Compass point is spinning,
helm is swinging to and fro
...where's the dog star?
...where's the moon?

You're a lost sailor, been away too long at sea.

Somedays the gales are howling...
some days the sea
is still as glass.
heave the main sail!
lash the mast!

You're a lost sailor, been away too long at sea....

Now the shorelines beckon... there is a price for being
free.

Hear them sea birds cryin'
and there's a ghost wind blowing...
And it's calling you- to that misty-
swirling sea!
Till the chains of your dreams are broken,
No place in this world you can
be...

You're a lost sailor, been away too long at sea.

Now the shorelines beckon, there is a price for being
...
free.

You pay fer being free, I'll tell yeh- freedom don't come easy,
Free don't always come for free,
Sometimes it's hard to know what to believe in...

Where to go, who to go, where to be, who to be.
That means you're driftin'.... driftin'


driftin' and dreamin',
really goin' on a dream now.
Really goin' on a feelin',
Driftin', driftin' and dreamin'...

Cause it's a place you've never been...
Maybe a place you've 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...
