Verse 1 Daily I’m reminded by the dirt beneath my nails Of all the things for which I strive and the mountains that I climb Endlessly confronted with the knowing that I’ll never find my soul Sitting here remaining motionless… so I guess this is where I say
Chorus Goodbye, I’m setting sail tonight I don’t know if I’m ever coming back again 'cause I’d rather risk being lost to the sea than sit here and let my soul Slip away… Goodbye
Verse 2 Well it’s as if these words that pass between my lips are overheard by the world And suddenly I’m overcome by the sound of a billion voices telling me that What I’m trying to do is hopless “So stay and live your days in the safety of the known, for if you set sail you may very well find your soul, or die trying”
Chorus Goodbye, I’m setting sail tonight I don’t know if I’m ever coming back again 'cause I’d rather risk being lost to the sea than sit here and let my soul Slip away… Goodbye
Bridge I won’t give up for if I fear to leave the shore, I’ll never find my soul I’ll never live, never love, never learn, I’ll never know, I’ll never grow So I guess this is where I say...
Chorus Goodbye, I’m setting sail tonight I don’t know if I’m ever coming back again 'cause I’d rather risk being lost to the sea than sit here and let my soul Slip away… Goodbye
