"Sail"

Copyright 2016, Tano Music

Words & Music by Tom Sperrazzo

Just put your sloop to sea.. 
Sit tight and wait for me..
The air's still.. then a whisp'ring breeze
And the tell-tales fly, 
Your mains'l fills and,   

 

  Wind blows, your ketch goes
  Your jib is up
  and now it billows!

 

    SAIL, the wind is your lover;
    SAIL, like seabirds you'll hover;
   SAIL, it's how you'll discover me.

 

You've tried to master time;
Why can't you see that I'm a whisper
In an unknown moment that comes at once and finds you;

     
        Wind blows, your ketch goes
        Your jib is up
        and now it billows! 

 

    SAIL, the wind is your lover;
    SAIL, like seabirds you'll hover;
    SAIL, it's how you'll discover me.

  

Just try romancing the sea air--
And trust the voyage we'll share
In time I'll answer your prayer, and you're there!
But in the wind--that's where you'll find me
Come and join the sailing dance with me.
