11.Don't Sail Away

Alone
On a sailboat lost at sea
I did not recognize the skies above me
My compass was just spinning round and round
It was just spinning round

And then with a gust of wind things changed
Set off on the course that seemed to me quite strange
I was heading through the air straight for the moon
Straight for the moon

And when I landed
He took my hand
We dine then we danced with the stars

He asked me to stay in this dreamland
But the wind called out so I went instead
Then he turned to me and said

Don't sail away
Don't sail away from me
Don't sail away
We could have such a lovely time

Don't sail away
Don't sail away from me
Don't sail away
You could stay and just be mine
I told him not this time

The wind carried me across deep spaces
I visited many times and many places
I drived until my boat came to a stop
On destiny's roof top

Inside
I played chess with destiny
I saw a way to win so very easily

But he was taking far too long to make his move
Destiny wouldn't move

So I turned my boat
Back towards that dreamland
And I filled the sails with my breath

When I landed
He took my hand
Though the wind called out I remained instead
He still turned to me and said

Don't sail away
Don't sail away from me
Don't sail away
We could have such a lovely time

Don't sail away
Don't sail away from me
Don't sail away
You could stay and just be mine
I like to stay for a life time

Don't sail away
Don't sail away
I like to stay
Don't sail away
We could have such a lovely time
You could stay and just be mine


sail away from me
time
mine
