about

This one is one of my favorites. It's also more acoustic

lyrics

I want to
I want to see more
More of this world, I wanna be free

Free to go explore
To see everything

I wanna see the world
See the world
See the world
And see everything

You and all the ocean
A Spec among the sea
Rising tides and mighty Isles
You'll crash up on the reef

I can tame these waves
And sail away
Across the Atlantic
'Tis not at all romantic

Then get ready for a wild ride
And in time you'll see that I was right
You're further then you've ever been
Here separates the boys from men

Ooh
Woah

The breeze on the seas of the Atlantic
The stars for the charts in the sky
Onward I sail further westward
Through every day and night

But it's lonely out here
There's a mystical fear
A respect for the deep
For what below lies asleep

And if I gently sail
Quietly under the sky
I can move on tomorrow
And let my vessel fly

The breeze on the seas of the Atlantic
The stars for the charts in the sky
Onward I sail further westward
Through every day and night

The breeze on the seas of the Atlantic
The stars for the charts in the sky
Onward I sail further westward
Through every day and night

I call upon the winds of the Atlantic
Please guide me on my way
I call to the waves of the ocean
Steady my ship as I lay

I call upon the winds of the Atlantic
Please guide me on my way
I call to the waves of the ocean
Steady my ship as I lay

Let me see the way to go
Please reveal the path to me
And I will venture on
Show me the way I should turn
Should I take a left up here
Or do I take a right

Let me see the way to go
Please reveal the path to me
Show me the way I should turn
Should I take a left up here

I think you should tell me the way to go
Well I won't well I won't
I think you just don't want me to know
You don't know you don't know
I guess I'll just do this on my own
Guess you will guess you won't
Whether I am right or whether I am wrong
You'll be wrong every time

Let me see the way to go
Please reveal the path to me
Show me the way I should turn
Should I take a left up here

Let me see the way to go
Please reveal the path to me
And I will venture on
Show me the way I should turn
Should I take a left up here
Or do I take a right

Chippa Chi Cha

Dough dough dough
Do do do dew, dew do dit do
Dough dough dough
Dahah ahah ahah ahah
Dough dough dough dough dough
Do do dooo dute dute dute
Do do dooo waba baba baba bah

Something that I got to say
It's very unlikely that
I'd sail across this great blue sea
And not forget my hat

For a hat you see has all the tricks
Just a tip and the magic starts
I'd wave my hand then a wish come true
And I'll mark it on my chart

I don't think you understand
This situation you're in right now
You got some beast below your boat
And this Creep trailing at your bow

Point the stern right towards the mark
And grab the tiller so you can steer
I'd get movin' if I were you
So put this schooner into 7th gear
