Sailing Song

Sailing on the ocean sailing far away
If I knew my love was home then I'd be home to stay
Sailing through the cold night deep into the day
Coming in the harbor sleeping in the bay
No matter where I go your memory arrives 
In the stars as they fade and the sun as she rise
In the sun as she rise

Well when I left the country not to see the world
It was all for the memory of one little girl
I've been this whole world over Lord I've been all around
I've seen every hillside and slept in every town
No matter where I go one thing stays the same 
I can't fall asleep at night if I don't say your name
If I don't say your name

I may never see my home again but what good is a home
If you come back at night and find you're all alone
The sea is unforgiving I may not get out alive
And if I do I'll be forced to live with the love I've been deprived
No matter where I go I can't find control
So I'll drift off in the darkness and find peace for my soul
And find peace for my soul
Sailing on the ocean sailing far away
If I knew my love was home then I'd be home to stay
Sailing through the cold night deep into the day
Coming in the harbor sleeping in the bay
No matter where I go your memory arrives 
In the stars as they fade and the sun as she rise
In the sun as she rise
