The Best Thing

I was a sailor a long time ago and

I sailed the seas, went wherever the wind would blow, with

No crew, no clue what I was doing, at the time it felt right

It was a small boat, I didn't care 'bout the size

The ocean's so big, it wouldn't matter, my life

Could feel magnificent, but in the blink of an eye

Feel insignificant and I'll explain to you why

Explain to you why

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

Well, I met a mermaid, her name was Ariel

She said she loved me, but I wasn't into her

I wonder how she is

She deserved nothing less than the prince

I fought a shark, it was wild, it never gave up

Adventure called from the moment that I would wake up

I brought a journal, but never found the time to write the best parts down

I'll explain to you why

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

And yes, it's nice here with all the earth and the grass

I miss the ocean, but what I have here is grand

No, I'll never leave you

I'd miss you much more than any boat I ever had

And no, I don't mind the sand at all

Not at all

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea

The best thing that ever happened to me

Happened when I decided to take a break from the sea
