Do you remember standing on the shore   Your head in the clouds your pockets filled with dreams   Bound for glory on the seven seas of life   But the ocean is deeper than it seems      The wind was with you when you left on the morning tide   You set your sail for an island in the sun   On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead   For the storm has just begun      Take me with you, take me far away   And lead me to the distant shore      Sail your ship across the water   Spread your wings across the sky   Take the time to see you're the one who holds the key   Or sailing ships will pass you by      You cry for mercy when you think you've lost your way   You drift alone, if all your hope is gone   And find the strength and you will see   That you controlled your destiny after all is said and done      So take me with you, take me far away   And lead me to the distant shore      Sail your ship across the water   Spread your wings across the sky   Take the time to see you're the one who holds the key   Or sailing ships will pass   Sailing ships will pass you   Sailing ships will pass you by      Take me with you, take me far away   We'll ride the wind across the sky   Spread your wings and you will see   You control, your destiny   So sailing ships don't pass you by      So take me with you, take me far away   We'll ride the wind across the sky   Spread your wings and you will see   You control, your destiny   So sailing ships don't pass   Sailing ships don't pass you   Sailing ships don't pass you by      Baby, baby, baby, baby   You'll find that you're the only one   Can sail your ship across the sky
