Lyrics
Sailing Home
By Noreen Inglesi
Verse 1
Moonbeams dancing on the water
The deep blue water
Oh, can?t you see?
Danger just beneath the surface
It waits there for you and me
CHORUS
Daylight is so far away
On your path we shall stay
Never losing hoping or strength
We shall soon be home again
Shine on we are with you
Wherever you are
We?ll follow your-shadow
So far away from home
Verse 2
Sad eyes telling of the struggles
The bitter struggles
And all the fears
Sad eyes can barely see the dancing
The dancing through all the tears
Chorus
Verse 3
For days we floated on the water
The deep blue water
With mist and haze
Searching for a new direction
Against the power of the waves
Daylight is so far away
on your path we shall stay
Never losing hope or strength
We shall soon be home again
Someday soon when this is over
In our beds so safe and warm
All this grief will be forgotten
Yet in our hearts we?ll know
Shine on we are with you
Wherever you are
We?ll follow your shadow
So far away from home
Shine on we are with you
Wherever you are
We?ll follow your shadow
So far away from home
