setting sail upon a ship

i watched your face

sitting by the thoughts that memories cannot replace

and though we play the scene

so many times before

i can see it in her eyes

she can't take much more

sailing ships

the caravan beyond the sky

searching for a dream

try to realize

that i love you more than i can say

and still i run now it's one more time

guess i've got to try to touch the sun

reaching for my destiny

i journey on leaving all behind

to try to touch the light beyond

she never really understands just why i go

but go sailing ships the only life i'll ever know

sailing ships

that caravan beyond the sky

searching for a dream

trying to realize

said i love you more than i can say

and still i run now it's one more time

yes i've got to try to touch the sun

life is just my place in time

never really understanding all the reasons why

sail on ships beyond the sky

keep on searching through the galaxy before i die

setting sail upon a ship

i watched her face

saddened by the thoughts that memories cannot replace

and though we've played the scene

so many times before

i can see it in her eyes

she can't take much more

sailing ships

that caravan beyond the sky

searching for a dream

try to realize

that i love you more than i can say

but still i run now it's one more time

yes i've got to try to touch the sun
