Lyrics

I’m sail ing a way

to a land (Em7)of op (D7)por (Gm)tu ni ty.

The sun will shine and birds will sing there ev ’ry day.

And I’m sail ing a way,

and I hope (Em7)that you (D7)re (Gm)mem ber me.

It’s It was fun, we had our run, hip hip hoo ray!

You said ed “hel lo,” I loved all you so, and just like in a mo vie scene.

(Gm)I want you to know I had to let it go.

I’m fall ing in love a gain.

(CN.C.)I’m run ning a way

to a place (Em7)where you (D7)won’t (Gm)both er me.

The We won’t talk and for a while; we’ll be o kay.

And I’m chang ing my name

to a word (Em7)that’s real (D7)ly (Gm)hard to say.

It’s no one’s fault; I’m just too young, and you’re in sane.

I wast ed my time; I missed all the signs, and it ru ined my hol i day.

(Gm)I want you to know I had to let it go.

I’m fall ing in love a gain.

(CN.C.)I’m run ning a way (G7)Ah, I just got ta be lieve there’s some thing bet ter.

(G7)Ah, I just got ta be lieve there’s some thing more than you and (F)me.

(G7)Ah, I just got ta be lieve, I just got ta be lieve.
