I Will Go Sailing No More
Out among the stars I sail
Way beyond the moon
In my silver ship I sail
A dream that ended too soon
Now I know
Exactly who I am
And what I'm here for
And I will go sailing no more
All the things I thought I'd be
All the brave things I'd done
Vanished like a snowflake
With the rising of the sun
Nevermore to sail my ship
Where no man has gone before
And I will go sailing no more
But, no -
It can't be true!
I could fly if I wanted to!
Like a bird in the sky
If I believed I could fly
Well, I'd fly!
Clearly, I
Will go sailing no more
