Leaving home for distant shores
Way beyond my dreams.
Watching as the sun goes down
Awaiting nights moon beams.

Standing on the forward deck
Wind blowing through my hair.
Trepidation, second thoughts
Will love come find me there?

Stars arrive to light my path
Across an endless sea.
I wonder will I have regrets
What will become of me?

I should go and find some sleep
But I can’t pull myself away.
So, there I stood against the rails
Until the break of day.

The sunrise brought me fresh new hope
On my decision to depart.
To pack your life in two suitcases
Isn't for the faint of heart.

I convince myself all will be okay
When I finally do arrive.
I'm lonely now, but will not be
If I have you by my side.
