C                              G7
Across the bay a lady waits to hold me tight 

       C                           G7
And my boat and I are ready to set sail
 
       C                                G7
If the weather keeps on holding and the wind is right
 
        C                                 G7
I'll be wrapped up in my sweet one's arms tonight 

       
            C                         G7
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night
 
C                            G7
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
 
             C                             G7
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water
 
    C                                  G7                          C
And dream of how our life will someday be when she sails away with me


                                        G7
As I skip across the waves my sails are high and full 

   C                            G7
My mind is on the one I wait to see
 
      C                               G7
And I dream about an island somewhere in my mind 

      C                           G7
Where someday I will take her off with me 

 
            C                         G7
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night 

C                            G7
Cast out our fortunes on the sea 

             C                             G7
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water 

    C                                  G7                          C
And dream of how our life will someday be when she sails away with me


                                G7
Then a smile comes upon me as I look across the bow 

C                   G7
I see a lady on the side 

    C                          G7
But she will wait no more as I head for the shore
 
      C                              G7
Cause tonight I'm gonna take her for a ride
 

            C                         G7
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night
 
C                            G7
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
 
             C                             G7
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water 

    C                                  G7                          C
And dream of how our life will someday be when she sails away with me
