Beautiful South - Sailing Solo Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Imagine sailing solo around the world
  • Only to find you've missed a continent out
  • And as your happy turns choppy and tidal wave swirls
  • You're wondering why there's no one about
  • At least Captain Scott actually stood on the spot
  • Where he planned to put up Union Jack
  • And though Captain Cook cursed the map that he took
  • He got near enough for native's attack
  • That's how it feels trying to navigate you
  • Even with compass and infinite time
  • Just when I think I've found some part that's new
  • I find a flag already up that's not mine
  • Circling you is journey minus view
  • Exploration without reason or reward
  • 'Cause when I get near you use an arrow or spear
  • To prevent my heart ever being shored
  • The earth ain't flat but it's a simple doormat
  • Compared to your unclimbable self
  • The desolate terrain you have to cross to your brain
  • Just one of your slippery shelves
  • That's how it feels trying to navigate you
  • Even with compass and infinite time
  • Just when I think I've found some part that's new
  • I find a flag already up that's not mine
  • And if I ever get close I'll need a banner or post
  • To hang it from, first there or not
  • So voyage may uncover a sister or brother
  • And a friendship that Colombus forgot.
