Evie Set Sail

Evie set sail alone on a boat
In perfect seas, it's easy to float
As she dreams
Out there, she ties her hair back
She turns for home and closes her eyes
To the breeze

Sweetheart the lines I tie
They're tied around
Please smile and stay awhile in my mining town
I'm not sure I asked you before
Do you mind the way?
I dig for stone to make this trip alone worth the stay

And I probably did
I probably did
Probably, yeah

I spent years trying to fill a hole
A hole that only love could feel
And it did
People come and people go
People told me it's not what you know
But it is

So listen and hear advice
But don't dismiss your own
Safety in numbers isn't strength like when
You stand alone

'Cause when you lose they'll slay the dreamer
They'll put you on the stake
When you win they come from every corner of the state

And they probably will
They probably will
Probably, yeah

So make tracks the world is yours
The Gods they'll smile
The sheep they'll file away
Laughter is the medicine
There's the oh so serious
The oh so serious

So sleep tight tonight little darling
Remember if you really believe
You've got to stay with it baby
Take chances you'll find all the answers
If you're patient and sail with the breeze
In your beautiful seas
In this magical hour
Your eyes closed to the breeze

Probably, yeah
