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 can 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 sail 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

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

Sails away with me
