Lyrics
SAIL AWAY
(1-09-21)
V1
I've always been a ramblin' man...... 'least in my mind.
But, my pocketbook stays empty...... most all of the time.
So, I come down to the water...... sit and wonder... time away,
dreamin' of the day... we might sail away.
Chorus
When we'll sail away.... to where we've never been...
searchin' for our island... in the sea.
V2
The day we wed, I know I said... I'd take care of you.
But, I can't yet buy those things ... I've wanted for you.
So, I've had to learn to live... with hardship... and reality;
pray for better days... for you and me.
(Repeat Chorus)
Solo
Yes, when we'll sail away... just you and me...
We'll pack away... our hopes and dreams.
Go searchin' for... our island... in the sea.
V3
Was a blessing on that day...... when I met you.
Though not impressed... I saw hope... within your eyes.
With time, lives blended together... as one from two.
Prayin' every day... He'll see us through.
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Solo
Ending
Yes, we'll go searchin' for our island in the sea.
in the sea.
