I've made my way, I've walked this world
|
I've tried to be a better girl
|
I've held my head up, held my own
|
Now all I wanna be is home
|
|
We sailed east in summer on the Azores High
|
For days I felt a silence in my soul
|
We headed south in winter to the trade winds
|
Like a heart beat, I could feel the ocean roll
|
|
My mother taught me how to be strong
|
My father showed me how to carry on
|
|
Now I turn the compass round
|
And head out on the ocean
|
I turn the compass round
|
And head out on the sea
|
|
'Cause I've made my way, I've walked this world
|
I've tried to be a better girl
|
I've held my head up, held my own
|
Now all I wanna be is home
|
|
Sometimes I think I'm never gonna find
|
A sweetness that I knew when I was young
|
And in this faded photograph it seems
|
Like everything is shining in the sun
|
|
My mother taught me how to be free
|
My father showed me how to live the dream
|
|
Now I turn the compass round
|
And head out on the ocean
|
I turn the compass round
|
And head out on the sea
|
|
'Cause I've made my way, I've walked this world
|
I've tried to be a better girl
|
I've held my head up, held my own
|
Now all I wanna be is home
|
Is home, is home
|
|
I've made my way, I've walked this world
|
I've tried to be a better girl
|
I've held my head up, held my own
|
Now all I wanna be is home
|
|
I've made my way, I've walked this world
|
I've tried to be a better girl
|
I've held my head up, held my own
|
Now all I wanna be is home
|
Is home, is home
|
