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.

The house lights blaze the spotlights dim and the encore fades away

We've got five hundred miles to go and another show to play

But there's a few old diehard fans still hanging out back stage

They're the ones who have been faithful from the start

So we renew our old aquaintances and discuss the life and times

Of Tommy, Toy and Ronnie and the ones we've left behind

And all the minstrel warriors who got old before their time

But they'll always have ap lace here in our hearts

And its time to pick up memories and remember our old freinds

Do you think we'll ever see the likes of Stevie Ray again

CHORUS

Sail away it's time for moving on

This music is my mission and this highway is my home

While you sleep we've got promises to keep

And miles to go before teh morning light

We're the tall dark ships that pass you in the night

We thank you for your kind words and for coming to the show

It's so good to see you all again but we've relly got to go

The weather's getting stormy and they say it's gonna snow

And Omaha's a far piece down the line

We'll it's sure been fun but the time has come to get on out of here

The driver's getting nervous and the road crew's out of beer

And if the good Lord's willing we're gonna see you all next year

And we'll drop you all a card at Christmas time

But the boys are getting restless and the hours getting late

The time goes by so easy but that highway won't wait

REPEAT CHORUS
