Sailboat Songtext

von Ben Rector

I feel just like a sailboat
Don't know where I'm headed
But you can't make the wind blow
From a sailboat
I've seen the sun
Felt the rain on my skin
I've been lost and found
But mostly I've been waiting

Oh, I'm out in the waves
And I'm hoping and praying
Please let this wind blow me home
Night after night
There's an empty horizon
My God, do I feel so alone
But sometimes life
And most times
I feel just like a sailboat

And I'm pretty sure I'm heard
At least I know I'm speaking
But I feel like a fool
Cause I can't hear you listening
But I'm not giving up,
Oh, I'm gonna move on forward
I'm gonna raise my sail
God knows what I'm headed towards

Oh I'm out in the waves
And I'm hoping and praying
Please let this wind blow me home
And night after night
There's an empty horizon
My god do I feel so alone
Sometimes life
And most times
I feel just like a sailboat

Only change I see
Lost or found at sea
The only difference
Is believing I'll make it in

Oh I'm out in the waves
And I'm hoping and praying
Please let this wind blow me home
And night after night
There's an empty horizon
My god do I feel so alone
Sometimes life
And most times
I feel just like a sailboat
