Anchor

Lyrics

Right next to my heart
There?s a faded tattoo
A dream of a life I once knew

I?ve sailed ?cross the ocean
I fought waves and wind
And now I?ve come back here again

I?ll drop my anchor
And always be thankful
For fearless adventures I found out at sea
I followed that lighthouse
From miles away
I?ll drop my anchor
I?m ready to stay

A young man grows restless
Goes off to explore
But an old man just can?t run no more

So here is this anchor
Ink on my chest
I?m finally ready to rest

I?ll drop my anchor
And always be thankful
For fearless adventures I found out at sea
I followed that lighthouse
My wandering?s through
I?ve sailed ?cross the ocean
To come back to you

I?ll drop my anchor
And always be thankful
For fearless and foolish adventures at sea
I followed that lighthouse
No longer alone
I?ll drop my anchor
I?m coming back home
