Sailing Home Lyrics

I set sail years ago, with the wind in my hair

Chasing dreams on the ocean, beyond all care

The sea was my compass, its waves my guide

But the days turned to years, and time passed me by

Oh, the sea, it took me far and wide

But I never forgot the look in your eyes

Now I'm sailing home through the storm and the spray

Praying you'll be waiting at the break of day

I've seen distant lands, under strange, foreign skies

Met people and places with new, wondrous eyes

But the whispers of the ocean, they spoke your name

And the longing in my heart, it burned just the same

Oh, the sea, it took me far and wide

But I never forgot the look in your eyes

Now I'm sailing home through the storm and the spray

Praying you'll be waiting at the break of day

Each wave that crashed brought a memory of you

Your smile, your laughter, the love that we knew

Now the stars are my witness as I chart my course

Back to the harbor, to you, my north

The years have been long, and the nights were cold

But your face in my dreams, it kept me bold

As the shore draws near, my heart starts to race

Will you be there, my love, in our old place

Oh, the sea, it took me far and wide

But I never forgot the look in your eyes

Now I'm sailing home through the storm and the spray

Praying you'll be waiting at the break of day

The mist starts to clear, the harbor in sight

The dawn breaks gently, chasing the night

With hope in my heart and the sea at my back

I return to you, along this well-worn track
