Lyrics
CHORUS:
Now is the season, now I begin
No reason for waiting
No need to hope for my ship to come in
I set my intention and start right now.
I've waited for fortune,
I've waited for fame
Or only a change in the weather
An Olympic contender
in the waiting game,
I've scanned the horizon forever.
CHORUS
But ships come and go, and fair winds have blown,
While I remain dead in the water,
It's time to weigh anchor, and face the unknown,
A confident hand on the rudder.
CHORUS
Bridge:
When I focus on tomorrow or dwell on yesterday
I cannot see that I am standing in my own way.
CHORUS
