Deburgh Chris Sailing Away Lyrics

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 disappear,

 Reading out the names

 Of all the places I have 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 lights,

 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...
