A rose scented June
|
A rose he pulled in June
|
They're full upon the lawn
|
The doctor came at dawn
|
|
An old daily care
|
And Suzie Banana Stand
|
Through frosted windowpane
|
Your father's middlename
|
>From a train
|
And everywhere the snow falls
|
Sail away (x4)
|
|
A veil (pale(?)) faded blue
|
A Ruben's old curfew(?)
|
One windy Winter's day
|
A Windsor market day
|
People say
|
Everywhere the snow falls
|
Sail away (x8)
|
|
She's moving down the seaside
|
'Cause that's where he comes from
|
He gave away all of her records
|
Is that where she belongs?
|
|
Better think it through
|
Remember who
|
Is there something new?
|
Or is it you again?
|
|
Sail away (x12)
|
|
So take your red gown
|
And go down to the dam
|
To do as you please
|
On the streets of your town
|
|
The whistling kind
|
Shake it out of your mind
|
It could be the day
|
When you finally say
|
Sail away (x6)
|
On and on (x7)
|
|
Sarah speaks (2 lines missing):
|
Up the riverbank, land that dried up
|
The causeway full of nice cars
|
The sand a distant dream
|
_____________ (?) ______________
|
_____________ (?) ______________
|
Across the riverbank
|
Cross the riverbank, don't look back
|
|
Background sings:
|
To sail away
|
And on and on
|
|
Sarah sings:
|
I sail, you sail
|
I sail, you sail
|
Do you remember how? (x4)
|
Do you remember how we used to live? (x3)
