Analysis of Cast away



Journeyman once more and the pursuit of the promise land
Looking ahead into the far distance of the world to where I stand
Promise to stay true to myself to stand out from the bystanders
To be selected to navigate your ship to be your main commander

Sailing through the seas to epic landscapes and more
To the ocean view far and wide to the many sceneries to explore
There's nowhere else I want to be besides in your arms
Shelter you from the storm and to protect you from any harm

Would you like to come along and set off to the unknown together
See the world secrets and hidden crevices yet to be discovered
Create moments sketched to a treasure map to remember us by
And let the world be so envious of the love they become mystified

To venture off to who knows where to live the dream that feels epic
Like some romantic movie with a ship but without the parts being tragic
From a faraway land I come onto your shore at peace I promise no harm
To offer you this chest filled with love its wits & bits and throw in a lil charm
