Charted Waters
No I don't need a compass
I could walk around blindfolded
No I don't think I need a guide
I've been roaming around all my life
Do you see that field of green?
Prettiest flowers I've ever seen
The fruit around are from these trees
Come have a taste, they're pretty sweet
I know where the hill dips and where the paths twist
Where the grass grows and the barren roads go
I've seen it in broad daylight or when the night comes
All the beauty and the flaws mixed in one
If i hand you a pair of oars
A pretty flag and a sailboat
Would you choose to stay in charted waters
Or leave without a falter
If i told you it's a gamble
You could strike gold or end up in shambles
Would you settle for the familiar
Or would you leave for better adventure?
There's a flip side to every coin
It does get mundane after a while
I'll show you the best parts of town
And where the rocks keep tumbling down
I know when the birds sing, when the crops are growing
Where the water's deep and where the beasts sleep
I've seen it in broad daylight or when the night comes
All the beauty and the flaws mixed in one
If i hand you a pair of oars
A pretty flag and a sailboat
Would you choose to stay in charted waters
Or leave without a falter
If i told you it's a gamble
You could strike gold or end up in shambles
Would you settle for the familiar
Or would you leave for better adventure?
I'm scared, I don't think I can do better
You've been a great chaperone
I'm not brave, but it's now or never
But you're all I've ever known
If i hand you a pair of oars
A pretty flag and a sailboat
Would you choose to stay in charted waters
Or leave without a falter
If i told you it's a gamble
You could strike gold or end up in shambles
Would you settle for the familiar
Or would you leave for better adventure?
I could walk around blindfolded
No I don't think I need a guide
I've been roaming around all my life
Do you see that field of green?
Prettiest flowers I've ever seen
The fruit around are from these trees
Come have a taste, they're pretty sweet
I know where the hill dips and where the paths twist
Where the grass grows and the barren roads go
I've seen it in broad daylight or when the night comes
All the beauty and the flaws mixed in one
If i hand you a pair of oars
A pretty flag and a sailboat
Would you choose to stay in charted waters
Or leave without a falter
If i told you it's a gamble
You could strike gold or end up in shambles
Would you settle for the familiar
Or would you leave for better adventure?
There's a flip side to every coin
It does get mundane after a while
I'll show you the best parts of town
And where the rocks keep tumbling down
I know when the birds sing, when the crops are growing
Where the water's deep and where the beasts sleep

But you're all I've ever known
If i hand you a pair of oars

Would you choose to stay in charted waters
Or leave without a falter
If i told you it's a gamble
You could strike gold or end up in shambles
Would you settle for the familiar
Or would you leave for better adventure?
