lyrics

tack around and catch the wind, ride the current out to sea
through the glass it's glistening in yellow, blue and green

and there's nothing to anchor
but the things left behind

follow the water through a channel to the stars
cause there's no crossing back over the bar

and the miles all stand in line, like the steady march of days
and it's not much kind of any consolation that to go's just another way to stay

and a ship in a bottle
is only ever passing through

follow the water through a channel to the stars
cause there's no crossing back over the bar

stand apart on the last remaining island, in an ocean that's floating in space

or follow the water through a channel to the stars
cause there's no crossing back over the bar
