Come Sail Away

Styx


I’m sailing away
Set an open course for the Virgin Sea
‘Cause I’ve got to be free
Free to face the life that’s ahead of me

On board I’m the captain, so climb aboard
We’ll search for tomorrow, on every shore
And I’ll try, oh Lord, I’ll try, to carry on

Instrumental

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

We lived happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out, on the pot of gold
But we’ll try, best that we can, to carry on

Instrumental

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 1
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me, lads
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me

Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me, baby
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me


Solo

I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
climbed aboard their starship, we headed for the skies, singing

Chorus 2
Repeat 8x
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me, lads
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me
