Whitesnake - Sailing Ships lyrics

(coverdale/vandenberg)<br><br>Do you remember<br>Standing on the shore,<br>Head in the clouds,<br>Your pockets filled with dreams<br>Bound for glory<br>On the seven seas of life,<br>But, the ocean is deeper than it seems<br><br>The wind was with you<br>When you left on the morning tide,<br>You set your sail for an island in the sun,<br>On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead,<br>For the storm has just begun<br><br>Take me with you,<br>Take me far away,<br>Lead me to the distant shore<br><br>Sail your ship across the water,<br>Spread your wings across the sky<br>Take the time to see<br>You're the one who holds the key,<br>Or sailing ships will pass you by<br><br>You cry for mercy,<br>When you think you've lost your way,<br>You drift alone, if all your hope is gone<br>So find the strength and you will see<br>You control, your destiny,<br>After all is said and done<br><br>So take me with you,<br>Take me far away,<br>An' lead me to the distant shore<br><br>Sail your ship across the water,<br>Spread your wings across the sky<br>Take the time to see<br>You're the one who holds the key,<br>Or sailing ships will pass,<br>Sailing ships will pass you,<br>Sailing ships will pass you by...<br><br>Take me with you,<br>Take me far away,<br>We'll ride the wind across the sky<br>Spread your wings and you will see<br>You control, your destiny,<br>So sailing ships don't pass you by<br><br>So take me with you,<br>Take me far away,<br>We'll ride the wind across the sky<br>Spread your wings and you will see<br>You control, your destiny,<br>So sailing ships don't pass,<br>So sailing ships don't pass you,<br>So sailing ships don't pass you by...<br><br>Baby, baby, baby, baby,<br>You'll find that you're the only one<br>Can sail your ship across the sky
