A ship sails over the ocean blue--the stars travel through space.
Alone in the blue, we are traveling along--moving at a snails pace.
It may sometimes seem like eternity, when we're waiting for something good.
We should never try to advance the clock--even if we could.
The wide open space of eternity, reaches out like an unending song.
The ticking of time continues--as our ship sails slowly along.
We fly with the wind and tack with the tide--we sleep in the calm of the lee.
It's a long and lonesome journey from where we began, to our ultimate destiny.
The sun rises over the Eastern sky and a wind comes out of the West.
The morning dew is on our sail--it's the time of day I love best.
It's a time to renew all hopes and plans--to reflect on the day gone by.
The morning always brings thoughts of hope--it does, and I don't know why.
So I'll sail today on this ship I'm on--I'll sail along in the breeze.
A song will probably float through my head--a song about birds in the trees.
I'll sail all day and into the night; with the ultimate goal in my sight.
Sailing alone in the wide open blue is a wild and wonderful flight.~Jay O.
