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
