John Spillane - We're Going Sailing lyrics

rate me

We're going sailing, out on the silver sea

The air is full of treasure, you and me

All along the shore you can hear the mermaids singing

"No-one will believe us, no-one will believe us"

And below on the strand the sea is answering the land

"No-one will believe us"

We're going sailing, for three nights and three days

There are one hundred islands in Roaring Water Bay

There on the hill the good people are living still

"No-one will believe us, no-one will believe us"

And we'll wake in the dawn, in the shadow of the thorn

"No-one will believe us"

How high is the mountain, how deep is the sea?

How wide is the ocean between you and me?

Underneath the waves dolphins play the same games

"No one will believe us, no-one will believe us"

And we'll wake in the dawn, in the shadow of the thorn

"No-one will believe us"

Where did we get the money, how did we live so long?

To be out on the ocean, to be singing this song?

All along the shore you can hear the mermaids singing

"No-one will believe us, no-one will believe us"

And below on the strand the sea is answering the land

"No-one will believe us"

We're going sailing, out on the silver sea

The air is full of treasure, you and me.<br />
