Heart is the Pacific ft. Daniel Wander Lyrics

I watched the sun set, orange and blazing, on the Golden Gate

I took my hopes and dreams and prayers, sent 'em out upon the spray

Aotearoa, bring me to your shores again

Take me safely swiftly sailin' on the wings of an ancient future dream

And I'll follow my heart into that wild, wild ocean

I'll ride these changing winds into that wild, wild sea

Oh, my soul, I just can't sit still while the world goes madly spinnin'

You set me free, I let it be, head out to sea and find myself another destiny

I'm just a speck in that great vastness, rockin' in the endless swell

Every wave brings me an answer, but the question, I can't tell

The morning star is risin', bringin' hope

Orion lays his weapons down again

My heart is the Pacific, dark and stormy, powerful and deep

And I'll follow my heart into that wild, wild ocean

I'll ride these changing winds into that wild, wild sea

Oh, my soul, I just can't sit still while the world goes madly spinnin'

You set me free, I let it be, head out to sea and find myself another destiny

Though the winds have died, and the seas are calm, there's a storm brewin' in my chest

So many nights, I laid awake and wondered why you had to say goodbye

Was it really for the best?

Up on midnight watch under the Milky Way, I ask for understanding, grace and ease

My seven sisters tell me, "great mother heals in time"

She brings me strength upon the breeze

She brings me strength

And I'll follow my heart into that wild, wild ocean

I'll ride these changing winds into that wild, wild sea

Oh, my soul, I just can't sit still while the world goes madly spinnin'

You set me free, I let it be, head out to sea and find myself another destiny
