A Carolina August day, I found a boat and sailed away My way I lost, but wonder gained, majestic memories Out on the sea I dreamed a dream, you'd never ever have to leave I'd never ever have to see these days come to an end Come, take my hand, I'll bring you here with me We'll sail away far from this land, two lovers in the breeze We'll write a song, and sing it out, to the rhythm of the sea Darling, o darling, to the sea We started drifting into shore but paddled hard and won that war I'm heading for a better home, and never, never turning back It is a place I long to see, where every dream I've ever dreamed Gets trumped by the reality of Love, true Love
