about

"You Never Know" is the opening song of "Setting Sail", No One's Child's first album.
The song is written as a ballad, and metaphorically tells about a person who had prioritized passion over anything else,
anticipating a real and relevant connection with the world. Against the odds and despite clear directions, but moreover - willingly and curiously answering a call of heart, letting fate decide the rest.

lyrics

I am captain of a raft
Knot and nail, the way I graphed
I’ll be wild in open seas
Will it last, no guarantees
Ropes untied
All strings unwind
Everything heavy
Is left behind
Setting sail
White sheets inhale
The flavor of life
The scent of tales

It's been a while
Been a while since I've held something true
But you never know
You never know what's inside
The gospel of dawn
What will it bring you
What will it summon
It's worth the wait
Just carry on

I am captain of a plank
Haunting teeth await to strike
Trails washed the empty sea
It's way too far, from where I
should be
Hostile streams
Last strengths dim
There's no one around
To hear the screams
Prayers sunken
Depths grin
A bare sip of air
Then drawn back in

It's been a while
Been a while since I've heard something true
But you never know
You never know what's inside
The whispers of moon
What's in its' shadow
When will the tide show
It's worth the wait
Just carry on

Days will pass and times
And I know
There's a course which is safe,
A course which is known
But when it calls I answer the call
May it ask for a bit
May it ask for me whole
Then if doomed am to fall
Trust I've given it all
And if storms are to take me
Then take me they shall

It's been a while
Been a while since I've felt something true
And I may never know
May never know what's inside
The folds of their hearts
What's sealed deep under
What do they treasure
It's worth the wait
Just carry on

Just carry on
Just carry on
Just carry on
It's worth the wait
Just carry on
