Red Sails in the Sunset Songtext
von Ray Sharpe

(Oh come back to me, Oh come back to me,
Red Sailors, Red Sailors, bring my love to me!)
′Twas down where fisher-folk gather,
I wandered far from the throng,
I heard a fisher-girl singing,
And this refrain was her song . . .
(Oh O'oo!)
Red sails in the sunset,
Way out on the sea,
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . . .
He sailed at the dawning,
All day I′ve been blue, Red sails in the sunset,
I'm trusting in you . . .
Swift wings you must borrow,
Make straight for the shore,
We marry tomorrow,
And he goes sailin' no more . . .
Red sails in the sunset,
Way out on the sea,
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . . .
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . . .
