[Verse 1]
Cry for the children
Sons and daughters left behind
They walk alone down the trail of tears
Full of heartache, full of fears

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Stand with open arms
Waiting for the fall
But who'll be there to help ya
When your back's against the wall

[Chorus]
You'll be sailing home before the storm
Through the night into the dawn
On the wind, I hear your voice calling
Sailing home before the storm

[Verse 2]
Why, cried the people
Give me shelter from the storm
They take the road across the bridge of sighs
No more heartache, the other side

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Ya stand with open arms
Ya scream into the night
But who'll be there beside ya
Can you see the end in sight
[Chorus]
You'll be sailing home before the storm
Through the night into the dawn
On the wind I hear your voice calling
Sailing home before the storm


[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Sailing home before the storm
Through the night into the dawn
On the wind I hear your voice calling...

Sailing home before the storm
Through the night into the dawn
On the wind I hear your voice calling
Sailing home before the storm
Sailing home before the storm
Through the night into the dawn
On the wind I hear your voice calling
Sailing home before the storm
Sailing home
