Across the bay a lady waits to hold me tight
And my boat and I are ready to set sail
If the weather keeps on holding and the wind is right
I’ll be wrapped up in my sweet one’s arms tonight

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

As I skip across the waves my sails are high and full
My mind is on the one I wait to see
And I dream about an island somewhere in my mind
Where someday I will take her off with me

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

Then a smile comes upon me as I look across the bow
And I see a lady on the side
But she will wait no more as I head for the shore
Cause tonight I’m gonna take her for a ride

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

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

We will sail away on the wings of love into the night
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
