With a leading light
And a face that launched a thousand ships before
To no return
Follow me I'm right behind you
On a dreamless night
Pulled forward by the moon and the dark stars
To another world
Where love will die or come to find you
And one day when my boat comes in from far away
To keep my head above water
Steady now
Steady as she goes
I'll sail closer to the wind
Before I miss her boat
Ready here I go
I'm not gonna swing in the lead
Anymore
Time and tide waits for no one, if you
Don't know the ropes, you're in the dream (Time and tide waits for no one)
Treading water deep beneath your feet
I've seen this night
I've seen it over and over again in my head
Well I feel I'm moving full steam ahead from far away
To my all on troubled waters
Steady now
Steady as she goes
I'll sail closer to the wind
Before I miss her boat
Ready here I go
I'm not gonna swing in the lead
Anymore
Nights are wasting
And I feel faded, 'cause I'm not getting what you're on about
Though I try, try, try to forget about it
But I'm tired of waiting round
'Cause I'm just ready now
Steady as she goes
I'll sail closer to the wind
Before I miss her boat
Ready here I go
I'm not gonna swing in the lead
Anymore
Though I try, try, try to forget about it
(Ready here I go)
