The fog rolls in
Steering the sails west
Towards a new year
Infinite blue
Lights twinkle overhead
Red and green
Trying to forget this year
With some holiday cheer
This Christmas Day
I’d like to be far away
From the uncertainty and fear
With only you near
When the dawn breaks
I’ll be miles away
Look up to the sky
A shimmering light
A Monterey pine sits in the galley
Oh on this Christmas Day
Quiet at sea
No gifts this year
Under our small tree
Just love and peace to spread across the sea
It takes time to swim ashore
When you’re caught in a wave
That keeps crashing
This new year I want to swim
Where the current carries me
Let the current carry me
This Christmas Day
I’d like to be far away
From the uncertainty and fear
With only you near
When the dawn breaks
I’ll be miles away
Look up to the sky
A shimmering light
