[Verse 1]
My love, I had a dream last night
I saw a rider on the wind
A stranger to my eyes
Was on the outside lookin' in
And the land he's longing for
(He's longing for)
Is on a dim and distant shore
Of my life
Of my life

[Verse 2]
My love, I heard a pilgrim's call
I saw it was forsaking all
I cried because I knew
(Yes, I know)
It meant my leaving you
But the riches that I gain
(Riches I gain)
Outweigh the losses that remain
In my life

[Chorus]
Sail me away
Sail me away
(I want to go with you)
Sail me away
(I want to go with you)
(Sail away, sail away, sail away)
Sail me away

[Verse 3]
My love, the man is older now
Yet wisdom was the guiding light
(In my life)
That led him on to foreign lands
(Far away)
Though he's never left your side
And the treasure that I bear
Is now all I seek to share
In my life

[Chorus]
Sail me away
Sail me away
(I want to go with you)
(Sail away, sail away, sail away)
Sail me away
(I want to go with you)
(Sail away, sail away, sail away)
Sail me away
(I want to go with you)
(Sail away, sail away, sail away)

[Fade]
