Land Ho - Supertramp, Ken Scott

Dream of nothing to do

Dream of nothing to say

Guess I need something to dream about

But something keeps on moving away

I said, land ho, will I be sailing forever?

I need some wind to take me to my goal

Land ho, will I be dreaming forever?

I gotta find an anchor for my soul

Once I thought I could see

But now I feel I’m just blind

For there’s this Something that’s calling me

Something that is so hard to find

I said, land ho, will I be sailing forever?

I guess I feel my ship is getting old

Land ho, will I be dreaming forever?

I gotta find an anchor for my soul

When you’re alone, there’s not a sail in sight

There’s a grey-lit sky and you may just try to take your life

There once was a lady made me feel alright

But she couldn’t stay, she just sailed away

Now there’s only waves to see me through the night

Maybe I’ll always be sad

And maybe there’ll always be strife

Drifting alone with a saddened tone

Afloat in the ocean of life

I said, land ho, a sailing ship gone forever

I need some wind to take me to my goal

Land ho, will I be searching forever?

I gotta find an anchor for my soul

Will I be sealing forever?

Will I be dreaming forever?

Will I be searching forever

Forever, forever, forever…
