Hey, you,

Standing there, your bags all packed to go -

Tell me what direction that your sailboat wants to row,

You passed up every riptide, defeated every storm

Now all that's left are calm blue seas, the waters taking form


Of what you hope to do in life, again I must declare

However long it takes you to, I'm sure you will get there

If every small dilemma failed to saturate your plans

If problems didn't stop you, fault you, end you, then what can?


Hey, you,

Waiting there, unsure of how to sail -

Just understand the shifting tides: you'll get there without fail

Close your eyes, grab my hand, and board this raft with me

We'll help each other through the squalls and sail across the sea.
