What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
When I left home,
2
I left it all behind.
3
Left all I've ever known,
4
To live on my own dime.
5
Hopped a plane.
6
Crossed borders.
7
Gonna make my name
8
Taking my own orders.
9
To live is to learn and
10
To learn is to grow.
11
I'd rather build than burn
12
A bridge to where I want to go.
13
My, oh my, how good it feels to just live my life.
14
To wake up every day knowing that I can change.
15
If there is a problem, solve it; if it breaks, just fix it.
16
Each new day is a new memory waiting to be made.
17
I've been shaped as much by those I've left as those I've kept.
18
(Carry on, my son)
19
I'll cross every heart and hope to never die; too busy saying hello to ever say goodbye.
20
(I'll see you when you're done)
21
I'll never forget where I'm from but I love the man that I've become.
22
(Carry on)
23
I gather around me those who make me feel complete,
24
The friends and family who are there to help me
25
When a problem comes along that I can't solve myself,
26
The ones who through just being kind help me decide which path I'd like to find.
27
I've been shaped as much by those I've left as those I've kept,
28
Like an old riverbed dreaming of the oceans it never met.
29
Flow forth, with haste, sweet river,
30
Carry on, carry on, carry on.
31
I'll cross every heart and hope to never die; too busy saying hello to ever say goodbye.
32
One day the story will be told on the wall in frames:
33
"Found adventure and love, chose rings and names."
34
Go forth, with grace, sweet lover,
35
Carry on, carry on, carry on.
36
I'll never forget where I'm from but I love the man that I've become.
37
Draw a line on the wall every time that you fall
38
And when you get back up to mark the way back home.
39
We live, we lose, we learn, we move. We go into the horizon with nothing to prove.
40
We love, we fight, we grow, we ride. We walk unconcerned to the oncoming tide.
41
We live, we lose, we learn, we move. We go into the horizon with nothing to prove.
42
We love, we fight, we grow, we ride.
43
Go North, find your place in forever,
44
Carry on, carry on, carry on.
Nathan Evans - Wellerman (Sea Shanty)
