If I could have a moment of peace
Then that'd be great
Without the pressures of the world
Screaming in my face
I'm homeward bound
Well, that's if only I could find my way
Don't make a sound
I don't wanna give away my hiding place

'Cause I'm a friendly castaway
I prayed the winds would guide my way
The gods were fools to believe in me
'Cause I'm a friendly castaway

When the party's over
You have to pay the check
How could I have paid my dues
And still be in your debt?
I'm homeward bound
And breathing with the motion of the waves
I hear the sound of tiny broken dreams
That drop like rain

'Cause I'm a friendly castaway
I prayed the winds would guide my way
The gods were fools to believe in me
'Cause I'm a friendly castaway

In my eyes, I'm almost human
I take my time with nowhere to put it
And all my chances to set things right
Are passing by

'Cause I'm a friendly castaway
I prayed the winds would guide my way
The gods were fools to believe in me
'Cause I'm a friendly castaway
