Lyrics

Sailing Away

We’ re coming into where I said I would meet her.
Sailing into our dock on the bay.
For seven weeks I’ve been dreaming I see her.
For seven weeks she’s been thinking of me.
And I know she’s going to smile when she sees me.
And it’s that smile that sets me free.
And I know she’s going to hug and she’ll squeeze me.
And that’s where I want to be.

A big claim just west of  Nebraska,
For three weeks now it’s kept me away.
But a red eye home to a taxi that will take me
To the woman I’ve been waiting to see.
And I know she’s going to smile when she sees me.
And it’s that smile that sets me free.
And I know she’s going to hug and she’ll squeeze me.
And that’s where I want to be.

Three kids, the same job for twenty years.
Lord knows we’ve shed our share of tears.
But it’s Friday night and those kids are out and sleeping over.
I think I know what’s in store for me.
And I know she’s going to smile when she sees me.
And it’s that smile that sets me free.
And I know she’s going to hug and she’ll squeeze me.
And that’s where I want to be.
And I know she’s going to smile when she sees me.
And it’s that smile that still sets me free.
