Sail On

It's been two years come this Sunday
Since he saw her laughing eyes
A soldier on the front lines
A young girl asking why

But the chapel bells were ringing
One bright December day
And as they walked into the future
A voice she thought did say

Sail on
Sail on
Wake up to a new day
Sing that morning song
Sail on
Sail on
And don't give up on believing
In a dream you thought was gone
Sail on

New life all around them
Memories breaking dawn
Two hearts safe and steady
In a world that's traveling on

Is it really shades of heaven
Or a dream it's hard to say
The new year brought a baby girl
That the good Lord took away

Sail on
Sail on
Wake up to a new day
Sing that morning song
Sail on
Sail on
And don't give up on believing
In a dream you thought was gone
Sail on

Sometimes late at night an old wind's calling
Pieces of the past blown round again
Bits of hope and struggle
That time has made a home
And they wonder
Just how the story ends

Down a lonesome Texas highway
Sits an old house by the road
An old woman rocking slowly
As a blue sky turns to gold

On the mantle there's a picture
Of a dream so long ago
Young lovers smile and wonder
What the future has to hold

Sail on
Sail on
Some day you'll be together
Sing that morning song
Sail on
Sail on
And don't give up on believing
In a dream you thought was gone
Sail on
