Look at this paradise for two
Just sail away when my ship will come in
Sky in a sea, that's twice as blue
In a tropical zone
While we surround the carribe
Just sail away when my ship will come in
Sail away, sail away, sail away
At every port a third world orders new epizene
When will my ship come in
Give it a real good yank and thank God we're all alone
We'll send them a card that ends
We'll tell our kind and gentle friends
You go and get the telephone
And leave the shore and give this tired old world a spin
What I don't know won't hurt me none
When all's said and done
Oh, island in the sun
Sail away, sail away, sail away
We'll raise a toast to what's still left of my memory
From that aqua marine
This is time to make amends
Any old where but here
Sun up, we'll sail away, the day that my ship comes in
We'll sail away, sail away
When my ship will come in
Hoping you'd come to me
Till your ship comes in
Just sail away when my ship will come in
When my ship will come in
At perfect coast in harmony
It all waits for me and you when my ship comes in
Fast as the highest mast can take us to you
We'll sail away, sail away
And we'll explore what might have been
