Lyrics
[Verse 1] Left the alarm beside the bed Took one shirt and a book instead Barefoot sand on the morning walk No appointment, no need to talk Salt on my skin, sun on the rail A little blue boat catching the sail I used to count every minute go Now I let the easy water flow [Pre-Chorus] If you’re looking for me, I’m out where the day feels new I’ve got a wide-open road and a sky full of blue [Chorus] We’re free, free, let the whole world wait Feet in the water, feeling good at any rate Breathe, breathe, let the warm wind start Palm leaves turning like a wheel above my heart No rush, no chains, just you and me Taking the long way to the sea We’re free, free, and it feels so right Living for the simple days and golden light [Verse 2] Market bells and a paper cup Laughing when the tide comes up Old boardwalk with a weathered sign You take my hand and I take mine No big plan in the afternoon Just a hammock moving with the tune When the evening paints the bay rose-gold Every little thing is worth more than gold [Pre-Chorus] If you’re looking for me, I’m out where the day feels new I’ve got a wide-open road and a sky full of blue [Chorus] We’re free, free, let the whole world wait Feet in the water, feeling good at any rate Breathe, breathe, let the warm wind start Palm leaves turning like a wheel above my heart No rush, no chains, just you and me Taking the long way to the sea We’re free, free, and it feels so right Living for the simple days and golden light [Bridge] We don’t need a map tonight The moon will show us where to go Every turn is open wide Every tide says take it slow [Final Chorus] We’re free, free, let the whole world wait Feet in the water, feeling good at any rate Breathe, breathe, let the warm wind start Palm leaves turning like a wheel above my heart No rush, no chains, just you and me Taking the long way to the sea We’re free, free, and it feels so right Living for the simple days and golden light [Outro] Take the long way, take the long way To the sea, to the sea Simple days, open ways You and me, we’re free
