Sailing Away Songtext
von Chris de Burgh

Waiting at the water's edge
Watching all the ships
As they are heading for the harbour wall
I was just a boy

I was just a boy
Dreaming of the wide world
Dreaming of the wide world
Watching as they disappear

Reading out the names
Of all the places i have never been

Looking out to sea
Staring out to sea
Dreaming of a wide world
Dreaming of the wide world

Oooo, oooo, oooo, woohh
I wish I was sailing away
Sailing away


Sailing away, with you tonight
With you tonight
Walking down another street
Underneath the red lights
I am watching where the shadows fall
Looking at the girls
Listening to the girls
Dreaming of a new world
Dreaming of that new world
Oooo, oooo, oooo, woohh
I wish I was sailing away
Sailing away
Sailing away, in your arms tonight
In your arms tonight
I wish i was sailing away
Sailing away
Sailing away, with you now
With you now...
