I Will Sail My Vessel lyrics by Garth Brooks

You know a dream is like a river, 
Ever changin' as it flows, 
And the dreamer's just a vessel, 
That must follow where it goes.

Trying to learn from what's behind you, 
And never knowing what's in store.
Makes each day a constant battle, 
Just to stay between the shores.

And I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, 
These waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try, 
So I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry! 

Too many times we stand aside, 
And let the waters slip away.
'Til what we put off 'til tomorrow, 
Has now become today.
So don't you sit off on the shore line, 
And say you're satisfied.
Choose to chance the rapids, 
And dare to dance the tide.

Yes I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, 
These waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try, 
So I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry!

There's bound to be rough waters, 
And I know I'll take some falls, 
But with the good lord as my captain, 
I can make it through them all!

Yes I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, 
These waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try, 
So I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry!
Yes I will sail my vessel, 
'Til the river runs dry.

'Til the river runs dry.


There is bound to be rough waters, 
And I know I'll take some falls, 
But with the good lord as my captain, 
I can make it through them all! 

Chorus
