I fell in love with the world outside
So I asked for her hand and she held mine
I packed my bags to head out west
With just a glimmer of hope inside my chest

Sail away to your open shores
I felt cursed at the time but now I know
You were racing down your river strong
For the very first time I felt your love

You owned my heart before we could meet
And you understood the world inside of me
Just when i was lost and lonely
You showed me your love knows no distance nor defeat

Sail away to your open shores
I felt cursed at the time but now I know
You were racing down your river strong
For the very first time i felt your love

I told her stories of my haunted past
She said quiet now my dear you know it wont last

So we built a fire 
just to burn all that we had that was pulling us down
Cause you know that life 
is just a turn on your own Merry Go Round

I fell in love with the world inside
And understood that happiness came from the mind
So if you're ever lost and lonely 
Just silence the hell that makes you feel incomplete

Sail away to your open shores
I felt cursed at the time but now I know
You were racing down your river strong
And for the very first time i felt your love
And for the very first time i felt your love.
