To the north my medicine To my east the burning sun I set sail on the ship of fools The south she waits But I can't go there again I'm bound west on the ship of fools All your love and all your hope all your joy and sense of wonder Keep it near Keep it safe Don't let it steal it from you All the dreams And all the pressure Never let it send you under don't let it send you under All the gold All that way Could never buy trust so long For its price Its not the same So I keep my eyes so far All the people All the work All the money And all the hurt To the north my medicine To my east the burning sun I set sail on the ship that's doomed The south she waits But I can't go there again I'm bound west on the ship of fools All your love And all your hope All your joy And sense of Wonder All the dreams And all the pressure Never let it send you under Never let it send you under The ocean awaits It calls me again But I'm bound to a ship of fools
