Out to Sea

It’s dark when I leave for work and dark when I return

Heavy eyes, dry throat and telephone burn

This is no kinda life for someone like me

I’d rather be a sailor out upon the open sea 

Out across the ocean, so far from the shore

I leave the suits behind they don’t control me anymore

With no obligations and the freedom to decide

I just follow the winds and the flowing tide

I said away, hey, I’m going out to sea

Some place they’ll never find me

Away, hey, oh I wanna be

Free to be the man I wanna be

Well I clock off in the morning at a quarter to five

The sun rises too early in the summertime

I sell my soul in exchange for food and wine

Longing to escape this life of mine

Well out across the ocean, living without a care

Rum in my belly and the wind in my hair

Oh can’t you see, this is how I wanna be

So raise the anchor, hoist the sails and set me free

I said away, hey, I’m going out to sea

Some place they’ll never find me

Away, hey, oh I wanna be

Free to be the man I wanna be

I said away, hey, I’m going out to sea

Some place they’ll never find me

Away, hey, oh I wanna be

Free to be the man I wanna be

I said away, hey, I’m going out to sea

Some place they’ll never find me

Away, hey, oh I’m gonna be

Free to be the man I wanna be

Free to be the man I wanna be

Free to be the man I wanna be
