Sail On

Sometimes the sun shines on other things,
Sometimes it's so quiet it's deafening,
I never needed to sigh.
Sometimes you lend a hand, it slaps your face,
Sometimes your best try is judged commonplace,
I never needed to shine,
I only wanted to shed some light.

Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Good-bye, farewell, so long,
Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Tomorrow, new horizon.

Blood stained, no gain news reigns again,
Just think what forty days of rain would bring,
I never wanted your time,
I only wanted to share my finds.

Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Good-bye, farewell, so long,
Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Tomorrow, new horizon,
It's my breeze, so long,
It's my breeze,
Tomorrow, new horizon.

Maybe she's gonna break my heart again,
Maybe she's gonna break my back instead,
I never wanted your blood,
I only wanted to share some words,

Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Good-bye, farewell, so long,
Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Tomorrow, new horizon.
It's my breeze,
Tomorrow, new horizon.
It's my breeze,
Tomorrow, new horizon.

Sail on, sail on, sail on,
Sail on, sail on, sail on …
