Come Sail Away

I'm sailing away

Set an open course for the virgin sea

For I've got to be free

Free to face the life that's ahead of me

 

On board I'm the captain

So climb aboard

We'll search for tomorrow

On every shore

And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try

To carry on

 

I look to the sea

Reflections in the waves spark my memory

Some happy, some sad

I think of childhood friends

And the dreams we had

 

We lived happily forever

So the story goes

But somehow we missed out

On the pot of gold

But we'll try best that we can

To carry on

 

A gathering of angels appeared above our heads

They sang to use this song of hope and

This is what they said

 

Come sail away

Come sail away

Come sail away with me

 

I thought that they were angels

But to my surprise

We climbed aboard their starship

And headed for the skies
