I'm sailing away
set an open course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free
free to face the life that's ahead of me
so climb aboard
on every shore
And I'll try oh Lord I'll try
to carry on
I look to the sea
reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy some sad
I think of childhood friends
and the dreams we had
so the story goes
on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can
to carry on
A gathering of angels
appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope
and this is what they said
They said
chorus
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
repeat last 2 lines 3 more
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels
but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship
and headed for the skies
