Light out wanderlust
Head us out to sea
Captain says there'll be a bust
This one's not for me
Take us from the dark
Out where we can see
Captain's out to make his mark
This one's not to be
Light out wanderlust
Help us to be free
Light out wanderlust
Do it just for me
Wanderlust
Oh, where did I go wrong, my love?
What petty crime was I found guilty of?
What better time to find a brand new day?
Oh, wanderlust away
Light out wanderlust
Help us to be free
Light out wanderlust
Do it just for me
Wanderlust
Captain's out to make his mark
This one's not to be
Light out wanderlust (oh, where did I go wrong, my love?)
Head us out to sea (what petty crime was I found guilty of?)
Captain says there'll be a bust (what better time to find a brand new day?)
This one's not for me (oh, wanderlust away)
Dropping a line
Maybe this time
It's wanderlust for me
