White Sails 1939

My heart is sailing
on a ship of dreams tonight,
pale moon beams light my way
My heart is beating
like the lonely waves tonight
Here's what it seems to say:

White sails beneath a yellow moon,
sail on across the sea,
White sails we'll reach a harbour soon,
where my heart longs to be.
Someone is watching
and waiting so patiently,
waiting for you
waiting for me
White sails we'll find our blue lagoon
Just you, my love and me.

White sails beneath a yellow moon,
sail on across the sea,
White sails we'll reach a harbour soon,
where my heart longs to be.
Someone is watching
and waiting so patiently,
waiting for you
waiting for me
White sails we'll find our blue lagoon
Just you, my love and me.

I fear no danger
sailing on a lonely sea,
while in the blue above
White sails are spread
and telling me they're guiding me
Homewards to you and love.

White sails beneath a yellow moon,
sail on across the sea,
White sails we'll reach a harbour soon,
where my heart longs to be.
Someone is watching
and waiting so patiently,
waiting for you
waiting for me
White sails we'll find our blue lagoon
Just you, my love and me.

White sails beneath a yellow moon,
sail on across the sea,
White sails we'll reach a harbour soon,
where my heart longs to be.
Someone is watching
and waiting so patiently,
waiting for you
waiting for me
White sails we'll find our blue lagoon
Just you, my love and me.
