Let's sail away
(Veerman/Keizer/Tuijp)
Now the afterglow is dying,
In the harbour so serene,
Look into the loveliest eyes I've ever seen
Where the waves are softly swaying
In the twilight of the day,
I am aching for your love, and fade away
Take me away over waters,
Only carried by the wind,
To the shores of nowhere land,
Take me away over waters,
At the mercy of the waves,
To the shores of golden sand
Let's sail away, let's sail away,
Across the ocean, the mighty ocean.
Let's sail away, across the sea,
To mystic islands for only you and me.
Mmm mmmm mm mmmm, mmm mmmm mm mmmm,
M mmm mm mm mmm, mm mmm mmm mm mmm.
Mmm mmmm mm mmmm, m mmm mm mmm,
Mm mmm mm mmm mmm mmm mmm mmm mm mmmmmm.
Where the day is slowly dawning,
In a misty morning dew,
Wanna wake up lying on the beach with you
When the waves are softly swaying
In the twilight of the day,
I am aching for your love, and fade away
Take me away over waters,
Only carried by the wind,
To the shores of nowhere land,
Take me away over waters,
At the mercy of the waves,
To the shores of golden sand
Let's sail away, let's sail away,
Across the ocean, the mighty ocean.
Let's sail away, across the sea,
To mystic islands for only you and me.
Let's sail away (let's sail away), let's sail away (let's sail away)
Across the ocean, the mighty ocean.
Let's sail away (let's sail away), across the sea (across the sea)
To mystic islands for only you and me.
