Sailboat - Ben Rector

I feel just like a sailboat

I don’t know where I’m headed

But you can’t make the wind blow

From a sailboat

I have seen the sun

Felt the rain on my skin

I’ve been lost and found

But mostly I’ve been waiting

Oh I’m out in the waves

I’m hoping and praying

Please let this wind blow me home

Night after night there’s an empty horizon

And my God do I feel so alone

Sometimes life, most times I, feel just like a sailboat

I’m pretty sure I’m heard

At least I know I’m speaking

But I feel like a fool

Cause I can’t hear you listening

But I’m not giving up

Oh I will move on forward

I’m gonna raise my sail

God knows what I’m headed towards

Oh I’m out in the waves

I’m hoping and praying

Please let this wind blow me home

Night after night there’s an empty horizon

And my God do I feel so alone

Sometimes life, and most times I, feel just like a sailboat

The only change I see

Lost or found, let’s see

The only difference is believing I’ll make it in

Oh I’m out in the waves

I’m hoping and praying

Please let this wind blow me home

Night after night there’s an empty horizon

My God, do I feel so alone

Sometimes life, most times I, feel just like a sailboat
