I'm sailing away

set an open course

for the virgin sea

cause i've got to be free



free to face a life thats ahead of me

on board i'm the captain

so climb aboard

we'll search for tomorrow



on every shore

but i'll try

o lord i'll try

to carry on



I look to the sea

reflections in the waves

spark my memories

some happy, some sad



i think of childhood friends

and the dreams we had

we live happily forever

so the story goes



but somehow we missed out

on that pot of gold

and we try

best that we can

to carry on



a gathering of angels

appeared above my head

they sang to me this song of hope

and this is what they said, they said



come sail away

come sail away

come sail away with me



come sail away

come sail away

come sail away with me



i thought that they were angels

but to my suprise

they climbed aboard their starship

and headed for the sky



singing, come sail away

come sail away

come sail away with me



come sail away

come sail away

come sail away with me
