{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea} Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me {She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue} Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you
Swift wings you must borrow Make straight for the shore We marry tomorrow And she goes sailing no more
{Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea} Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
Swift wings you must borrow Make straight for the shore We marry tomorrow And she goes sailing no more
{Red sails in the sunset} Way out on the sea (ooh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh) Oh, carry my loved one {Home safely to me}
