set an open course for the virgin sea
cause i've got to be free
free to face the life that's ahead of me
we'll search for tomorrow on every shore
reflections in the waves spark my memory
i think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
but somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
but we'll try best that we can to carry on
a gathering of angels appeared above my head
they sang to me this song of hope
and this is what they said
come sail away with me now
come sail away with me now
i thought that they were angels
we climbed aboard their starship
come sail away with me now
