Trace a path On a chart Or I could leave it up to my heart Either way I know It’s time to go I can see aurora dance across the sky I see a flock of birds as they fly Through the night Steady on toward the daylight Oh, let me follow their lead below Give me wings, give me speed For a new adventure sings A siren call that rings It pulls me forward Far beyond familiar shores To the unexplored The stars along the horizon Will guide me on my way I’ll scatter my wildest dreams along the wind And the wind will sail me away Let me leave behind the old While I search for gold In the rising of the sun In my transformation Let me run away from the rules, from control From the lies that insult my soul There is no going back Into the cage We were made For wide open skies Let the tide come in Let it begin This new adventure pulls me forward Away from the shore To the unexplored And there, beyond the horizon My heart will lead the way I’ll scatter my wildest dreams along the wind And the wind will sail me away
