Sail Away

When I was a lad, didn't care for listening
to all the words my father said to me
Then he was gone, left me all alone, he sailed away

Sailed away

I grew up hard, and fast and learned to fight.
I would survive each day by my own might
And when I'd seen, all I wanted to see, I'd sail away

Sail away

Oh sail away, to life's next turn.
Sail away and thank god for the scars I've earned
And celebrate, each passing day
As we sail away

I once had a wife, great smile and full of charm.
Gave her my heart and soul and she died in my arms
But I won't cry, just pack up and leave, and sail away

Sail away

Cause life's like a ride, aboard a galleon ship
It's not what you have no no but what you do with it
When you see the storm, don't sail into it, no you sail away

Sail away

Oh sail away, to life's next turn.
Sail away and thank god for the scars I've earned
And celebrate, each passing day
As we sail away

I've been there before, don't tell me what you did
I've seen it all twice don't try to impress me kid
God only knows, I've paid my due's, and sailed away

Sail away

Don't look at my wounds, for you'll not see
Most of my scars they run just way to deep
And when I die, toss me into the blue, and sail away

Sail away

Oh sail away, to life's next turn.
Sail away and thank god for the things you've learned
And celebrate, each passing day
As we sail away

Oh sail away, to life's next turn.
Sail away and thank god for the scars I've earned
And celebrate, each passing day
As we sail away
