Sail Away
The Rasmus Lyrics

Once upon a time, we had a lot to fight for
There was a time where we had many things worth fighting for – a purpose in life.

We had a dream, we had a plan
We had a clear vision of what we wanted to achieve and how to do it.

Sparks in the air, we spread a lot of envy
Our energy and enthusiasm caused others to become jealous of our passion and drive.

Didn't have to care, once upon a time
There was a time where we didn't have any worries or responsibilities, everything was simple and carefree.

Remember when I swore, That love was never ending
I recall when I sincerely believed that love would last forever, that it was permanent and unbreakable.

That you and I would never die
I truly believed that our love was so strong it would never end, that we would be together forever – even in death.

We had it all, We had it all
We had everything we needed in life and nothing could take that away from us, everything was perfect.

Sail away, it's time to leave
It's time to depart and move on to the next chapter of life, to leave the past behind and start anew.

Rainy days are yours to keep
The difficult times and struggles are now yours to bear, you must own them and face them head-on.

Fade away, the night is calling my name
The darkness is calling me, luring me to the unknown, to leave behind all that I know and embrace the unknown.

You will stay, I'll sail away
While you will remain in your comfort zone, I will venture off into a new, unfamiliar world.

Once upon a time, we used to burn candles
There was a time where we would use candles for light, possibly as a metaphor for when life was simpler and more humble.

We had a place to call a home
We had a stable and secure environment, a place where we felt safe and comfortable in.

The dream that we lived was better than divine
The life we led, the reality we experienced was more amazing and fulfilling than anything we could have ever imagined.

Every day was like a gift, once upon a time
Every day felt like a precious present, a blessing to be cherished and appreciated during that time period.

Remember when you swore, Your love was never ending
I remember when you told me that our love would last forever and it would never fade away.

That you and I will never die
You believed that our bond was unbreakable and that no matter what, we would always be together.

We had it all, We'd never fall
We had everything we needed and never thought we would lose it, we were invincible and thought nothing could hurt us.

No reason to lie, No need to pretend
There's no reason to be dishonest or act differently, what you see is what you get, nothing hidden or fake.

I'm grateful to die, To live once again
I am thankful for this life and what it has taught me, to die is to be reborn and given the opportunity to start anew.

I'm fearless to fly, And reach for the end
I am not afraid to take risks and push myself to the limit, to pursue my goals and dreams until the very end.

The night is calling my name
The darkness is beckoning me to leave behind everything I know and plunge into the mystery and uncertainty of the unknown.
