Lyrics

Sailing

[Verse 1]

Wind in my sails

I lived for days

No water, no food

It was good

[Verse 2]

I didn't mind, no

Nowhere to be

Nothing to see

Except me

[Chorus]

Only fear

Can make you feel lonely out here

You learn to accept

Whatever you can get

[Verse 3]

When there is no law

You've done nothing wrong

You can't take too long

Making up songs

[Chorus]

Only fear

Can make you feel lonely out here

You learn to accept

Whatever you can get

Whatever you can get

[Chorus]

Only fear

Can make you feel lonely out here

You learn to accept

Whatever you can get

Whatever you can get
