I've got to be free free to face the life that's ahead of me
 On board I'm the captain so climb aboard
 We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
 And I'll try oh Lord I'll try to carry on

 I look to the sea reflections in the waves spark my memory
 Some happy some sad
 I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
 We live happily forever so the story goes
 But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
 But we'll try best that we can to carry on

 A gathering of angels appeared above my head
 They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said
 They said come sail away come sail away
 Come sail away with me
 Come sail away come sail away
 Come sail away with me

 I thought that they were angels but to my surprise
 They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
 Singing come sail away come sail away
 Come sail away with me
 Come sail away come sail away
 Come sail away with me
