Chapters

That one's really good. I love this song, young man. I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea, 'cause I've got to be free, free to face the light. 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 I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had. Live happily forever, so the story goes. But somehow it must come to be on a parting board. But we'll try the best that we can. Everybody sing it now! Come sail away, come sail away with me. Come sail away, come sail away, sail away with me. Way out there, way out there, sail away with me. Come sail away, come sail away, sail away with me.
