Sailing Lyrics

[00:04.24] Well, it's not far down to paradise
[00:40.50] At least it's not for me
[00:43.44] And if the wind is right, you can sail away
[00:46.72] Find tranquility
[00:49.17] Oh, the canvas can do miracles
[00:52.91] Just you wait and see
[00:55.73] Believe me
[00:59.70]
[01:02.12] It's not far to Never-Neverland
[01:06.23] Reason to pretend
[01:09.01] If the wind is right, you can find the joy
[01:12.44] Of innocence again
[01:15.08] Oh, the canvas can do miracles
[01:18.10] Just you wait and see
[01:21.58] Believe me
[01:25.40]
[01:28.48] Sailing takes me away
[01:32.95] To where I've always heard it could be
[01:41.14] Just a dream and the wind to carry me
[01:44.59] Soon I will be free
[01:47.73]
[01:52.04] Fantasy
[01:54.91] It gets the best of me
[01:57.89] When I'm sailing
[02:01.05] All caught up in the reverie
[02:08.62] Every word is a symphony
[02:11.22] Won't you believe me?
[02:14.64]
[02:18.24] Sailing takes me away
[02:22.48] To where I've always heard it could be
[02:30.65] Just a dream and the wind to carry me
[02:33.48] Soon I will be free
[02:37.21]
[02:42.54] Well, it's not far back to sanity
[03:10.84] At least it's not for me
[03:13.69] If the wind is right, you can sail away
[03:16.99] And find serenity
[03:19.75] Oh, the canvas can do miracles
[03:23.44] Just you wait and see
[03:26.21] Baby, believe me
[03:29.60]
[03:33.13] Sailing takes me away
[03:37.96] To where I've always heard it could be
[03:43.48]
[03:46.25] Just a dream and the wind to carry me
[03:49.65] Soon I will be free
[03:50.50]
