Lyrics

I’m sailing, sailing cross the world
Sailing free as a bird
Heading for the south seas
Heading for the warm breeze now
The sea may be rough and the sea may be cruel
To the good time on distant shores
The north star is shining and guiding us home
As the main sails fill and drive us on
Heading for the south seas
Heading for the warm breeze now
As the captain calls and the eight bells toll haul away
Last night he came to me in a dream
Looked in my eyes and told me it ain’t what it seems
The sea may be rough and the sea may be cruel
To the good time on distant shores
The north star is shining and guiding us home
As the main sails fill and drive us on
Heading for the south seas
Heading for the warm breeze now
As the captain calls and the eight bells toll
Haul away
Soft as the east wind blows
Coming home on the wind.
