Elizabeth Gerardi
Smooth Sailing
All those years I felt seasick
Convinced myself it was normal
Watched you roll the storm clouds in
And roughen up my waters
I held on so tight there were blisters on my hands
I finally let go and
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
All those times stomach in knots
Praying for a sunny day
Waiting for your floor to drop
Right on out from under me
I held on for dear life but I fell overboard
I was terrified now I don't know what for
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
You were like an anchor weighing me down
Always in the harbor of your vacant town
Always so afraid that I would drown
Heard your violent waves now I don't hear sound
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
Now I'm smooth sailing
Oceans clear and blue
Now I'm smooth sailing
Sailing away from you
