Whitesnake - Sailing Ships lyrics

(coverdale/vandenberg) Do you remember Standing on the shore, Head in the clouds, Your pockets filled with dreams Bound for glory On the seven seas of life, But, the ocean is deeper than it seems The wind was with you When you left on the morning tide, You set your sail for an island in the sun, On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead, For the storm has just begun Take me with you, Take me far away, Lead me to the distant shore Sail your ship across the water, Spread your wings across the sky Take the time to see You're the one who holds the key, Or sailing ships will pa** you by You cry for mercy, When you think you've lost your way, You drift alone, if all your hope is gone So find the strength and you will see You control, your destiny, After all is said and done So take me with you, Take me far away, An' lead me to the distant shore Sail your ship across the water, Spread your wings across the sky Take the time to see You're the one who holds the key, Or sailing ships will pa**, Sailing ships will pa** you, Sailing ships will pa** you by... Take me with you, Take me far away, We'll ride the wind across the sky Spread your wings and you will see You control, your destiny, So sailing ships don't pa** you by So take me with you, Take me far away, We'll ride the wind across the sky Spread your wings and you will see You control, your destiny, So sailing ships don't pa**, So sailing ships don't pa** you, So sailing ships don't pa** you by... Baby, baby, baby, baby, You'll find that you're the only one Can sail your ship across the sky
