Lyrics

Somewhere beyond the sea

Somewhere waitin' for me

My lover stands on golden sands

And watches the ships that go sailin'


Somewhere beyond the sea

She's there watchin' for me

If I could fly like birds on high

Then straight to her arms, I'd go sailin'


It's far beyond a star

It's near beyond the moon

I know beyond a doubt

My heart will lead me there soon


We'll meet beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailin'


I know beyond a doubt, ah!

My heart will lead me there soon


We'll meet, I know we'll meet beyond the shore

We'll kiss just as before

Happy we'll be beyond the sea

And never again I'll go sailin'


No more sailin'

So long, sailin'

Bye bye, sailin'

Move on out, captain

So long...
