Come Sail Away - The Ohio State University Marching Band, Dr. Jon R. Woods, Dennis De Young

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

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

A gathering of angels appeared above my head

They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said

They said: 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

I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise

We climbed aboard their starship, we headed for the skies

Singing come sail away, come sail away, come sail 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

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

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

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

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

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

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