steer your helm away
can the whole world feel my sad heart
and can your sad heart feel me?
it's so sad to make
your sweetheart feel lonely
i know very well
our time is through
for though i love you
don't know who else loves you too
so don't throw your heart away
to the waves that will break on the shore
you think it's simple but i know
it's the hardest thing around
so take control
and steer you helm away
and don't throw your heart away
to the waves that will break on the shore
i am an island in the blue sea
and for a while you moored by me
but now it's time for you
to sail away from here
steer your helm away
