Lyrics
Sail Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Many's the time I've been troubled in mind
And I've not known where to go
Deeper and darker, no way to believe
Lying and dying, no way to conceive
Making believe it's not true
What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day
Sail away, throw it over your shoulder
You may find in your heart
That you've made a new start with a future not so bad
Then you can show all the feelings you know
With a will to carry on, carry on, carry on
Then you can know all the feelings you show
And you'll know just where to go
Deeper and darker's no way to believe
Lying and dying's no way to conceive
Making believe it's not true
What in the world can you do?
Sail away, give it all to another day
Sail away, throw it over your shoulder
You may...
Carry on, carry on, carry on, carry on.
