Across the bay a lady waits to hold me tight And my boat and I are ready to set sail If the weather keeps on holdin' and the wind is right I'll be wrapped up in my sweet one's arms tonight
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night Cast out our fortunes on the sea Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water And dream of how our life will someday be When she sails away with me
As I skip across the waves my sails are high and full My mind is on the one I wait to see And I dream about an island somewhere in my mind Where someday I will take her off with me
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night Cast out our fortunes on the sea Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water And dream of how our life will someday be When she sails away with me
Then a smile comes upon me as I look across the bow I see a lady on the side But she will wait no more as I head for the shore Cause tonight I'm gonna take her for a ride
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night Cast out our fortunes on the sea Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water And dream of how our life will someday be When she sails away with me
Sail away on the wings of love into the night Cast out our fortunes on the sea Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water And dream of how our life will someday be When she sails away with me
