Tell me lover, now that you made your change
Was your soul rediscovered? Was your heart rearranged?
Are you still taking pills in the morning?
And did you lose that longing now?
For a walk through an ocean town
Cause this town's just an ocean now
You don't hate the summers
You're just afraid of the space
Asking strangers for answers
To forget what they say
Give us a progress report here
You're making progress
That is my report
Just a lack of an open mouth
Cause this town's just an ocean now
Bad, I miss this place
Your head and your heart
And my dad still tells me
When they're playing your songs
Laughing at the way
That you would say
If only baby there were cameras in the traffic lights
They'd make me a star
I wanna go to Maine
Mmm
I wanna go to Maine
Bad, I miss this place
Your head and your heart
And my dad still tells me
When they're playing your songs
Laughing at the way
That you would say
If only baby there were cameras in the traffic lights
They'd make me a star
It's 6am, day 2
We're currently motoring out of New Haven
Out of Morris Cove where we anchored last night
Yesterday was so smooth
We got in at about 4pm, 5pm
And settled in, dropped the anchor for the first time
And yeah, got it to hold
And good thing because a squall came in
And we were hitting 40 knots
We were just white knuckling it
Sitting in the cockpit, just watching everything
Seeing if we were dragging
It was, yeah, not fun
But the anchor held
But now we're motoring out of here
And on our way to Block Island
Should be about a 12 hour sail
We're motoring, but
We're supposed to get about 18 knots of wind today
So hopefully we can raise the sail soon
Like the pine trees lining the winding road
I've got a name
Like the singing bird and the croaking toad
I've got a name
And I carry it with me like my daddy did
But I'm living the dream
That he kept here
Moving me down the highway
Rolling me down the highway
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by
We're finally coming out of Long Island Sound
And it is picking up
We have 29 knots of gusts
There's Montauk
You can't see it, but that's the last we'll see of New York
I've got a song
Like a willful will and the beavers cry
I've got a song
And I carry it with me and I sing it loud
If it gets me nowhere
Moving ahead so life won't pass me by
Nice
Beauty
Well then, he would put more of these
My own song
Yes, I'm doing it
Like he knew it was wrong
Tell me just one time
What I knew all along
I'm on your side, on your side
Long blue light
If you don't call me
Might lose my mind
Can't keep concentrating
On the worry I find
Could just let me abide
All in my mind
I'm on your side, on your side
Long blue light
Welcome to God, fellas
Islands are heavy
My spirit is numb
Don't know where I'm headed
Don't know where I'm from
I'm here just waiting
For my day to come
I'm on your side
Have we used it?
Did we use it last night?
No, we haven't used it since the storm
It may have blown away in the storm
Holy ----, really?
We were just going nuts?
Yep, that's probably it
Wow
Holy crap
Sorry fellas
I just thought he was gonna leave
Yeah, he's not gonna
Oh, absolutely
They are so smooth to clean
It's part of the experience
How was that?
The camera just doesn't do it
Wow
We were born before the wind
Oh, so younger than the sun
Yeah, the bonnie boat was one
As we sailed into the mystic
Oh, I can now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and
Alright, out of Cape Cod Canal
And ten, twelve knot winds
Sails are up and it's a beautiful day
Dad's at the tiller
All bundled up
How do you feel Doug?
Feeling great
Yeah?
It's a beautiful morning
And magnificently we will fall
Into the mystic
When that foghorn blows
You know I will be coming home
And when that foghorn whistle blows
And I hear it
I don't have to fear it at all
Just like way back in the day
On the white line
Jeez
Yep
I don't see a number on it
Hey, that was really good Jake
Yeah
I was shitting myself
Document the first row
You're going to have to unsnap that
There you go
Recently I was like
Holy fire, what are you doing?
And you don't
Where are you going?
You better come back
Taxi!
We couldn't afford an outboard
We had to buy a new exhaust
Don't be embarrassed
You'll never see these people ever again
Wave to them
Zephyrin
I once went out with a girl named Zephyr
I'd look it up and bring it back
But I'll never remember it
It's too long
I do
But I don't want to tell you
Anything else about that
This is longer than 30 feet
You promised me 30 feet
Oh my god, yeah
That's awesome
Are we on?
I'm gripping the wheel
I'm back between villages
And everything's still
