I'm a happy man I made my choice in life I chose to settle down I chose to take awife and I take pleasure in my quiet hearth and happy home I never gave myheart its chance to roamI could have been a sailor and sailed the seven seas with the wind in my face all daycan you taste the salty breeze I could have been a lover watching waves beforeme part but I settled for safer harbors of my heartI'm a lucky man I'm the envy of my peers I never asked for favors when I nevershow my fears surrounded by too many friends I am a one-man band with all thetrappings of a life lived second-handI could have been a sailor rolling through the night my sails before thewind where the stars are my only light I could have been a dreamer yeah butdreams just fall apart so I settled for safer harbors of my heartand I take pleasure in my quiet hearth and happy home I never gave my heart its chanceto roamI could have been a sailor and sailed the seven seas with the wind in my face all daycan you taste the salty breeze I could have been a dreamer and watched the waves beforeme part but I settled for safer harborsoh sailorsail the seven seas there's the wind in your face all day I can taste the salty breezelover I can see the waves before you part while I settle for safer harbors of my heart
