I see.. Maybe I should send you some kind of beacon for the reindeer to navigate by? Some little item you could put in your garden. A pink flamingo with a little GPS system in it?

It's not so bad to be adrift, it can be an adventure, too, you know. Do you know this song?

I could have stayed in the harbour safe from the storm and the gale
Letting the sands run through my hands watching as others set sail
But I would have spent time counting the things I'd never known
Passions laid waste, dreams misplaced, the seeds of desire unsown

I'm a single handed sailor
Lost, adrift and alone
Hoping to ride the wind and the tide
Hoping to find my way home

The sea is ever changing like the beat of a restless heart
Out there I find some peace of mind to keep me from falling apart
When the voyage was ended I'd stand once again on the shore
I'd take time to smile and rest for a while before setting sail once more

I'm a single handed sailor
Lost, adrift and alone
Hoping to ride the wind and the tide
Hoping to find my way home

You know I must roam the ocean, the wanderlust still burns
Beneath empty skies I remember the ties that bind and I will always return

I'm a single handed sailor
Lost, adrift and alone
Hoping to ride the wind and the tide
Hoping to find my way home
