I've been sailing ten thousand years I've been to far off lands, crossed the seven seas I've seen empires rise, seen the heads of the mighty fall I shared my bread with peasants, kings and all My love's in the valley, my love's on the hill She's the star that leads me, she's the breeze in my sail Can't wait to kiss her lips, when I set my foot ashore Can't wait to tell my tales and show you what I have in store I will sail on, I won't lie down I will sail on, I won't lie down My love is waiting on the other shore I will sail on, I won't lie down From the Arizona desert I bring you burning sand Bring you ancient wisdom from the red and yellow man Bring you tea from China, skin canoe from the Eskimo And sculptures that came to life many years ago I bring you the river that runs to the sea I bring you the songs of the man who's fightin' to be free I bring you the crystal ice from where the arctic winds blow cold And I bring you the stories that have never been told I will sail on, I won't lie down I will sail on, I won't lie down My love is waiting on the other shore I will sail on, I won't lie down I bring you the prison-door that locks people in I bring you the shotgun that killed again and again I bring you the soldier that died without a name And the bleeding heart of the woman that lost her man From Spain I bring you the blood-red wine Talking drums from Africa and Lebanon pine From the southern islands I bring you fruit so sweet I bring you a golden ring as a gift from me I will sail on, I won't lie down I will sail on, I won't lie down My love is waiting on the other shore I will sail on, I won't lie down
