Sailing

You know a dream is like a river,
Ever changing as it flows,
And the dreamer is just a vessel,
That must follow where it goes.

Trying to learn from what's behind you,
And never knowing what's in store.
Makes each day a constant battle,
Just to stay between the shores.

And I will sail my vessel,
Till the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind,
These waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel,
Till the river runs dry!

Too many times we stand aside,
And let the water slip away.
And what we put off till tomorrow,
Has now become today.
So don't you sit upon the shore line,
And say you're satisfied.
Choose to chance the rapids,
And dare to dance the tides.

There is bound to be rough waters,
And I know I'll take some falls,
With the good lord as my captain,
I can make it through them all!
