(Verse 1)
I walk the streets of this old town, Newport is my home
I see the ocean shining bright, it beacons me to roam
I'll leave the desk that ties me down to hear the seagulls squawk
I'll feel the wind upon my face and head down to the dock
(Chorus)
Sail away, sail away, sail away, I'll just sail away
Sail away, sail away, into the sparkling water on this beautiful day
(Verse 2)
We'll grab our gear, buy some chips and stow the ice and beer
And greet the other sailors as we stride along the pier
Once we're aboard, we'll raise the jib and hoist the main full sail
I've got the tiller, you hold the sheet, now let the wind prevail!
(Chorus)
Sail away, sail away, sail away, I'll just sail away
Sail away, sail away, into the sparkling water on this beautiful day
(Bridge)
Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away
(Verse 3)
We'll sail our boat into the sun as light fades to the West
With salt blown hair and wind burned shin, it's time to take a rest
We'll catch our mooring, call the launch, and tie up all the sails
And go ashore to have a bite, relax, and tell some tales
(Chorus)
Sail away, sail away, sail away, I'll just sail away
Sail away, sail away, into the sparkling water on this beautiful day
Into the sparkling water on this beautiful day
Into the sparkling water on this beautiful day
