Noel Coward Sail Away
When a sailor goes to sea
Though he leaves his love behind
Time and tide will set him free
From the grief inside him
Sea and sky will ease his heart
Regulate his troubled mind
Every sailor has a chart
And a star to guide him home
When the storm clouds are riding through a winter sky
Sail away, sail away
When the love light is fading in your sweetheart's eye
Sail away, sail away
When you feel your song
Is orchestrated wrong
Why should you prolong your stay?
When the wind and the weather blow your dreams sky high
Sail away, sail away, sail away
Love is meat to make us glad
Love can make the world go round
Love can drive you raving mad
Torment and upset you
Love can give your heart a jolt
But philosophers have found
That it's wise to do a bolt
When it starts to get you down
When your life seems too difficult to rise above
Sail away, sail away
When your heart feels as dreary as a worn-out glove
Sail away, sail away
But when soon or late
You recognize your fate
That will be your great, great day
On the wings of the morning with your own true love
Sail away, sail away, sail away
