Lyrics One Man Voyage - The Real McKenzies

One Man Voyage

Silently she came to me
A storm disguised as a perfect sunrise
The water still, I welcomed her
With open arms, I truly felt alive
Understand I’m just a man
Cut all my ties, so this life was the prize
I didn’t mean to mix our dreams
No winning sides with finish line goodbyes
I’m sorry lass
The change was steep
This nomad king’s not searching for his queen
So on you go
There’s life to lead
Your own ship must be captained without me
The winds they call louder at night
Shouldn’t have let go on repeat
If I chose to lower my flag
I’d reside with them all in the deep
All things must end
Sun waves retreat
But they’ll return to cleanse your blistered feet
You have my best
I’ll take my leave
If you need me, I’ll be out there in the sea
If you need me, I’ll be out there in the sea
