Sail Away (a song)
Sail Away
Sail Away
It's time for me to sail away
Sail away
sail away
it's time for me to sail away
Once I lacked a boat of strength
could not sustain at sea
then time let go and now I know
there's enough strength in me
Like so much flotsam in the sea
the love I gave floats back to me
and the waves roll out
and the waves roll in
Sail away
Sail away
It's time for me to sail away
Sail away
Sail away
It's time for me to sail away
love couldn't hold me tight
the water frightens still
but the sea keeps flowing in my night
and my love always will
sail away
sail away
It's time for me to sail away
the precious gifts I gave
ivory shells on summer sand
I walk alone on shoreline now
gather them in my hands
I lean into the morning sun
and cast my heart's net wide
inviting all the love I gave
back to me, inside
sail away
sail away
It's time for me to sail away
