When you're out there on that open road
And you have no place to go
There's a solace in the emptiness
When there is no need to know
You can drift away
You can spend the day without things
When the night comes on
You can spend it without dreams

Like a wave out on the open sea
Like a cloud up in the sky
You can move away from earthly things
You don't have to say goodbye
When you're free at last
You can leave your past behind you
Chart a brand new course
Let it take you far away

You can sail the sea
You can sail the sea inside you
You can leave it all
You can leave it all behind yeah

When you're out there in the emptiness
And your dreams have been denied
It's time to face the wilderness
And sail the sea inside
