Songteksten

Even if you're sure
Before you begin to cry
Never rest until you find
What is best to be forgot
Let it float off in the night
Beneath a moon so brightly shining down
On the steeples of the town
You must not be downhearted
Over things you've left undone
You've got faith to tell you all is well
And you know you best not stall
There's still a ways to go
Even if you're sure
Before you begin to sigh
Let me show my way is best
On the wayward side tonight
Let a planet be your guide
And dim up the fields beside the sleeping town
When the work is all shut down
You will not be outsmarted
By the song you left unsung
You've got faith to make your world take flight
There's still a ways to go
'Bout a thousand miles or so
And even if you're sure
Before you begin to smile
Let it happen on its own
Like a shellfish in the sea
I'm as selfish as can be
When it comes down to me and all of my kin
All I want to do is win
You will not be deserted
By the friends you've left alone
You've got faith to make you meet the cost
And you know you best not wait
He who hesitates is lost
So even if you're sure
It's so easy to be shellfish in the sea
