I was a sailor a long time ago and
I sailed the seas, went wherever the wind would blow, with
No crew, no clue what I was doing, at the time it felt right
It was a small boat, I didn't care 'bout the size
The ocean's so big, it wouldn't matter, my life
Could feel magnificent, but in the blink of an eye
Feel insignificant and I'll explain to you why
Explain to you why
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

Well, I met a mermaid, her name was Ariel
She said she loved me, but I wasn't into her
I wonder how she is
She deserved nothing less than the prince
I fought a shark, it was wild, it never gave up
Adventure called from the moment that I would wake up
I brought a journal, but never found the time to write the best parts down
I'll explain to you why
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

And yes, it's nice here with all the earth and the grass
I miss the ocean, but what I have here is grand
No, I'll never leave you
I'd miss you much more than any boat I ever had
And no, I don't mind the sand at all
Not at all
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
The best thing that ever happened to me
Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
