Sail a way with me, ho ney, I put my heart in your hand.
Sail a way with me ho ney now, now, now.

I wan na hold you now, now,

Cra zy skies are wild a bout me now,
win ter howl ing at my face;
and ev ’ry thing I held so dear
dis ap peared with out a trace.
Through all the times I tast ed love,
nev er knew quite what I had.
Lit tle dar ling, if you hear me now,
nev er need ed you so bad;
spin ning round in side my (Fm)head.
Sail a way with me, ho ney, I put my heart in your hand.
Sail a way with me ho ney now, now, now.
sail a way with me;
what will be will be.
I wan na hold you now,
now, now.
Sail a way with me, ho ney, I put my heart in your hand.
Sail a way with me ho ney now, now, now.
sail a way with me;
what will be will be.
I wan na hold you now,

Sail a way with me, ho ney, I put my heart in your hand.
Sail a way with me, ho ney, now, now,
sail a way with me;
what will be will be.
I wan na hold you now,

Sail a way with me, ho ney, I put my heart in your hand.
Sail a way with me, ho ney, now, now,
sail a way with me;
what will be will be.
I wan na hold you now,
now, now.
