Free Sails
This boat's sailing out of the port

This ship's sailing alone
You've shoved me away from the dock
Bringing in newer yachts you find
On me, you've closed the door and turned the lock

So fine, just be that way
Just push me off aside
But you and I both know
That I've still got my pride

And sure, those boats are pretty
But they tend to fall apart easy
I'm the only sturdy one here standing
I'll be the only one when the winds are high and breezy

When those pretty boats you let dock in
Leave you all alone and blue
Don't cry to me and look for this ship to stay
Cause I refuse to stay for you

You showed me I'm unwanted
Unless you're left sad and lonely
And it won't be me to dry your tears
Cause I'll never be your one and only

So this ship's out to sea
I refuse to stay around and wait
Play your games with someone new
I'll dock out before it's too late

As I sail out to the ocean
And I leave you far behind
I won't look back, I refuse to cry
And I'll never change my mind
