Lyrics

Did I fix my eyes
On a wandering star?
Cause after ten years runnin’
Now we’re comin’ back to the start

Through the night through the shadows and the mist
So many ways to shatter your ship
So many ways the years adrift
Will tear a your mind apart

So take this ship and point it home
Cause I been away for way too long
Twist of fate
And trouble flows
Open the sky and let the west wind blow
Take this ship
And point it home

So tell me did you change your mind
Did you wander off?
Maybe you found yourself somebody else
That could play the part

Cause I bet that there’s a hundred men
Begging you to let them in
I’m just another old beggar
Buried deep down in your heart

So take this ship and point it home
Cause I been away for way too long
Fates be kind
Let your mercies flow
Open the sky and let the west wind blow
Take this ship
And point it home

Phosphorus shines like a million stars
Sirens wail through the wandering rocks
Drank the Calypso’s wine
She promised me a song
Then she wouldn’t let me move on
Take this ship
And point it home

So take this ship and point it home
Cause I been away for way too long
Apollo’s flame
Lights a golden road
My love she sleeps where the west wind blows
Take this ship
And point it home
