I was a sailor a long time ago and
I sailed the seas went wherever the wind would blow 
with 
No crew no clue what I was doing at the time it felt 
right 
It was a small boat 
I didn't care bout the size 
The ocean so big
It wouldn't matter my life 
Could feel magnificent but in the blink of an eye 
Feel insignificant and I'll explain to you why 

I'll explain to you why

The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea 
The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

Well I met a mermaid her name was Ariel 
She said she loved me but wasn't into her 
I wonder how she is 
She deserves nothing less than a prince 
I fought a shark it was wild And never gave up 
Adventure called for the moment that I would wake up 
I brought a journal but never found the time to write 
the best parts.... Down...

I'll explain to you why 
The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea 
The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

And yes its nice here with all the earth and the grass 
I miss the ocean but what I have here grand
No I'll never leave you I'd miss you much more than any 
boat I've ever had 
And I no don't mind the sand at all 
Not at all 

The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea 
The best thing that ever happened to me 
happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
