Columbus from Aberdeen by Phil Henry

I am Christopher Columbus on the wide open sea
Not even the edge of the Earth can frighten me
I got blue sky far as I can see as I’m sailing into history
Just one strong wind is all I need

I am rubber on the blacktop racing for the finish line
I got eighteen miles behind me and my body is on fire
I got blue sky far as I can see, so Pheidippides’ got nothing on me
Just second wind is all I need

It’s a long way to go but I gotta finish what I start
I got a mind that wants to wander, but I got a one-track heart
I can’t shake this feeling, something great is out there waiting, maybe
That’s the only way I know, but it’s a long way to go (It’s a long way to go)

I am diesel on the highway, I am fast and I am free (It’s a long way to go)
I’m a suitcase, I’m a ticket, I’m as scared as I can be (It’s a long way to go)
I got no blue sky blues to follow me, now I’m sailing far from Aberdeen
Just a little hope is I need

It’s a long way to go but I gotta finish what I start
I got a mind that wants to wander, but I got a one-track heart
I can’t shake this feeling, something great is out there waiting, maybe
That’s the only way I know, but it’s a long way to go

Long way, a long way, it’s a long way to go
Long way, a long way, it’s a long way to go
