A careless heart
Ain't no good to no-one
I was going back
My friends to see
Of what became
Of my childhood daydreams
Of all the things
That used to be
To my surprise
I stood alone
I walked a river
Of a waking dream
My father say
"Know what you're thinking"
I guess this old town
Seen better days
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
Sail on
Ain't nothing
For you here now
You talk of change
Something better
Cutting down
That big old tree
Flesh and blood
In there somewhere
No matter what
You just don't seem to see
I walk your chambers
Your empty halls
I see you talking
Behind the doors
My father say
"Know what you're thinking"
Guess this old town
Seen better days
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
Sail on
Sail on
I'm sailing on
I'm running faster
Oh, than I ever
Run before
My father say
"Know what you're thinking"
I guess this old town
Seen better days
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
It's all gone
Ain't nothing
For you here now
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Yeah, yeah
Sail on
I can still hear him saying
"Ain't nothing for you now
You're gotta sail on
You're gotta sail on"
I'm sailing, sailing, sailing on
I'm sailing, sailing, sailing
Sailing on
I'm sailing, sailing, sailing
Sailing, sailing on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
