Head for the shore, my friendâ??the forest is on fire, you can see
The smoke climb high into the night.
Donâ??t be afraid, my friendâ??to follow the desire in your heart,

Youâ??ll always know which road is right.

Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind

Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind

Iâ??ll find a wayâ??Iâ??ll take my thousands of mistakes

That broke me down into the dust I am today
Iâ??ll light 'em up in flames â??fore I wade deep into the water
Let these ocean waves take me away


Learn to be still, my friendâ??I know that you are tired, I have seen
The color's fading in your eyes.

Thereâ??ll come a day, my friendâ??when everything is quiet, for awhile.
Another placeâ??another time.


Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind
Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind


Iâ??ll find a wayâ??Iâ??ll take my thousands of mistakes
That broke me down into the dust I am today
Iâ??ll light 'em up in flames â??fore I wade deep into the water

Let these ocean waves take me away

Iâ??ve fallen ill, my friendâ??itâ??s time I should retire to my home.

Never stop until youâ??re free.
But if you will, my friendâ??please burn me in the fire when Iâ??ve gone
Give my ashes to the sea.


Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind
Donâ??t think youâ??re leaving me behind


Iâ??ll find a wayâ??Iâ??ll take my thousands of mistakes
That broke me down into the dust I am today

Iâ??ll light 'em up in flames â??fore I wade deep into the water
Let these ocean waves take me away
