Sail Around the World - David Gates

I WOULD SAIL AROUND THE WORLD

LOOK FOR GOLD AND DIVE FOR PEARL

BUT I KNOW I WILL NEVER GET TO GO

I WOULD LIKE TO WIN A PRIZE, BE IN EVERYBODY’S EYES

BUT IT’S TRUE, I WOULD PROBABLY NOT GET TO

MY LIFE HAS ALWAYS BEEN SIMPLE

NO ONE EVER KNOWS WHEN I COME AND GO

AND MY DREAMS ARE ENDING AT SUNRISE

AND DREAMING JUST DON’T MAKE IT SO

SO I’VE LIVED WITHOUT REGRETS

WOULDN’T CHANGE A THING AND YET

NOW AND THEN, WISH THAT I COULD START AGAIN
