Chris de Burgh - Sailing Away Lyrics
Waiting at the water's edge
Watching all the ships as they are heading for the harbour wall
I was just a boy I was just a boy
Dreaming of the wide world dreaming of the wide world
Watching as they disapper
Reading out the names of all the places I hav never been
Looking out to sea staring out to sea
Dreaming of a wide world, dreaming of the wide world
I wish I was sailing away, sailing away
Sailing away with you tonight with you tonight
Walking down another street
Underneath the red light I am watching where the shadows fall
Looking at the girls listening to the girls
Dreaming of a new world dreaming of that new world
I wish I was sailing away sailing away
Sailing away in your arms tonight
In your arms tonight
I wish I was sailing away sailing away
Sailing away with you now with you now
