The Sea Inside

Album: I Knew You When (2017)

  • 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 Writer/s: BOB SEGER
