Sail Away

Ye promised me my Jackie
On the day that we were married
Ye'd build a boat of dreams for me someday.

A vague romantic notion
That we'd sail off to some ocean
But in my dreams we'd get there one fine day.

You haven't been the same since the yard closed down
Like all the other men in this broken town
Well ye'd end up by the river as your thoughts turn black
I said pull yourself together, pet – and come home Jack.

Whenever we had sorrows
We'd always say tomorrow
We'd catch that ship of dreams and sail away.

I didn't know you worried so, Peggy
You didn't know? I'm only on you about it most of the day. Every day
Well, you do go on, but I tend to just tune you out, you know?
Well, now you know.

Whenever we had sorrows
We'd always say tomorrow
We'd catch that ship of dreams and ail away.
Jackie...
