Dennis DeYoung - Come Sail Away Lyrics

Everybody, I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
'Cause 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
Yes we will, yes we will

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 had dreams
We lived happily forever, so that story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll 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, yeah
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 surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing, come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me
I'm gonna sail away tonight
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me

Here we go
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away, come sail away
