hans theessink - sail on lyrics

Loading...

i’ve been sailing ten thousand years
i’ve been to far off lands – crossed the seven seas
i’ve seen empires rise – seen the heads of the mighty
fall
i shared my bread with peasants – kings and all

my love’s in the valley – my love’s on the hill
she’s the star that leads me – she’s the breeze in my
sail
can’t wait to kiss her lips – when i set my foot ash-r-
can’t wait to tell my tales and show you what i have in
store

i will sail on – i won’t lie down
i will sail on – i won’t lie down
my love is waiting on the other sh-r-
i will sail on – i won’t lie down

from the arizona desert i bring you burning sand
bring you ancient wisdom from the red and yellow man
bring you tea from china – skin canoe from the eskimo
and sculptures that came to life many years ago

i bring you the river that runs to the sea
i bring you the songs of the man who’s fightin’ to be
free
i bring you the crystal ice from where the arctic winds
blow cold
and i bring you the stories that have never been told

i will sail on …

i bring you the prison-door that locks people in
i bring you the shotgun that killed again and again
i bring you the soldier that died without a name
and the bleeding heart of the woman that lost her man

from spain i bring you the blood-red wine
talking drums from africa and lebanon pine
from the southern islands i bring you fruit so sweet
i bring you a golden ring as a gift from me

i will sail on …
