Sailing on By

歌詞

I'm taking my chances i'm eager to fly Fulfilling my hopes and dreams And i'm sailing on by Without hesitation with no consideration I'll grab opportunities That are sailing on by And life keeps getting shorter I'm everyday closer to death There's no time to think But it's all the more time to act And i'm setting my sails Some people seem to live all of their lives Dreaming of all things to do While life's sailing on by They seem to pretend that tomorrow will bring The gain of their waiting And they'll be sailing away Their life keeps getting shorter They're everyday closer to death To wake up one day Reflecting upon the time they wasted away Not setting their sails I've got no possessions, no liabilities I'm free as the bird While others are sailing on by I once heard the word practice what you preach I'm not exactly sure what it means But i'm sailing on by My life keeps getting shorter I'm everyday closer to death I'll wake up one day Reflecting upon the fact I was living a lie.
