Sail Away (on the Wind)
I rolled and tossed all night on a sea of battered dreams
My spirit longed for flight, to sail off on the wind
Been caught up in a chain of emails + deadlines
Pressure, stress + strain, those petty thieves of time
Is that how it’s meant to be?
Oh for a timeless day
I’d head down to the sea and simply swiftly
Sail away
(On the wind)
Sail away
(On the wind)
The sun shining bright – the sea riding high
I’ll cruise off like a kite across a clear blue sky
Now darling don’t you hold me back
Just let me slip away
On this horizon tack
On this clear timeless day
Sail away
Sail away
Sail Away
SOLO
I rolled and tossed all night on a sea of battered dreams
My spirit longed for flight, to sail off on the wind
Sail Away
(On the wind)
Sail away
(On the wind)
