Red Sails in the Sunset Songtext
von Dinah Washington

Red sails in the sunset
Way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one
Or bring him home safely to me

He sailed at the dawning, oh
And don′t you know all day I've been blue
That′s why it sails in the sunset
I'm putting all my trust in you

A swift of wings you must borrow
And make straight for the shore
We're gonna marry tomorrow
And he′ll go sailing, he′ll go sailing no more


Red sails in the sunset
Way, way, way, way out, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one
Carry him home safely to me

A swift of wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
Or we'll marry tomorrow
And he′ll go sailing no more

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more

Red, red, red sails in the sunset
Way out, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one
Oh, home safely to me
