SAILING SHIPS - WHITESNAKE - (1997) Do you remember standing on the shore, With your head in the clouds And your pockets filled wtih dreams? Bound for glory, on the seven seas of life But the ocean is deeper than it seems The wind was with you When you left on the morning tide You set your sail for an island in the sun On the horizon, dark clouds up ahead, For the storm has just begun Take me with you, take me far away, And lead me to the distant shore Sail your ship across the water, Spread your wings across the sky Take the time to see You're the one who holds the key Or sailing ships will pass you by You cry for mercy When you think you've lost your way You drift alone, If all your hope is gone But find the strength and you will see That you control your destiny After all is said and done So take me with you, take me far away, An' lead me to the distant shore Sail your ship across the water, Spread your wings across the sky Take the time to see You're the one who holds the key Or sailing ships will pass, Sailing ships will pass you Sailing ships will pass you by So take me with you, take me far away, We'll ride the wind across the sky Spread your wings and you will see You control your destiny So sailing ships don't pass you by So take me with you, take me far away, We'll ride the wind across the sky Spread your wings and you will see You control your destiny So sailing ships don't pass So sailing ships don't pass you Sailing ships don't pass you by Baby, baby. baby baby You'll find that you're the only one 'who Can sail your ship across the sky
