[Chorus]

    
Sail-------ing

          
 takes me away

        
 to where I've

         
 always heard 

            
it could be
            
Just a dream a

              
nd the wind to

 
 carry me
          
And soon I wil

      
l be free

     


[Bridge]

    
Fant--------as

 best    of me
         
When I'm sail-

     
--ing
     
All caught up 

             
in the reverie

     
, every word i

       
s a symphony
         
Won't you beli

             
eve    me?

 always heard 

            
it could be
            
Just a dream a

              
nd the wind to

 
 carry me
          
And soon I wil

      
l be free
