[Verse 1]
Oh boy, these high seas can be so cool
When you're trying to find your own way
And girl, that man of war is a fool
I wouldn’t follow him anywhere

[Verse 2]
Big, small, they all swim 'round their bones
I don't care for their wishes
Oh, striving to be better than
Those other fishes

[Chorus]
Trying, before the storm
To entice swim to shore
Till you can’t see their boat anymore

[Bridge]
As the storm takes flight
Still no land in sight
Let the far winds blow
Let 'em go, let 'em blow

[Verse 3]
I know
To live so far away
On board this ship of fools with gold
I don't care for their wishes
