I wrote this song as a young man with dreams of quitting the harbor and slipping away over the horizon. Never made that epic sea journey, but I think the words also work as a pretty good metaphor for how we choose to live our lives. We all have our ships, whatever form they may take. No matter what your vessel may look like, take the helm and sail on!
