Waiting at the water's edge   Watching all the ships as they are heading for the harbour wall   I was just a boy, I was just a boy   Dreaming of the wide world, dreaming of the wide world      Watching as they disappear   Reading out the names of all the places I have never been   Looking out to sea, staring out to sea,   Dreaming of a wide world, dreaming of the wide world      I wish I was sailing away, sailing away,   Sailing away, with you tonight, with you tonight      Walking down another street   Underneath the red lights, I am watching where the shadows fall   Looking at the girls, listening to the girls   Dreaming of a new world, dreaming of that new world      I wish I was sailing away, sailing away,   Sailing away, in your arms tonight,   In your arms tonight      I wish I was sailing away, sailing away,   Sailing away, with you now, with you now...
