Sails
Steve Wariner · Drive [Arista] [1993]
Sails are just like wings, you can fly from things
Run before the wind, Lord let it blow
Let it rock me slow while I sleep below
Dreaming dreams that only sailors know.
It will soothe your mind smooth away your lines
Set your clock back on your own time
If you sail with me we will find the sea
We will find our love over again.
--- Instrumental ---
It will soothe your mind smooth away your lines
Set your clock back on your own time
If you sail with me we will find the sea
We will find our love over again.
We will find our love over again...
