Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, it's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right, you can sail away
And find tranquility
[Verse 2]
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe in me, oh
[Verse 3]
It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right, you can find the joy
Of innocence again
[Verse 4]
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe in me
[Verse 5]
Sailing takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
Soon I will be free, yeah, oh
[Verse 6]
Fantasy, it gets the best of me
When I'm sailing, oh
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe in me?
[Verse 7]
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Sailing takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free, yeah
[Verse 8]
Ooh, oh, it's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right, you can sail away
And find serenity
[Verse 9]
Oh, the canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe in me
[Verse 10]
Oh, sailing takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be, oh
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
[Verse 11]
Well, I'm sailing, sailing
Sailing takes me away
