Manning - Midnight Sail lyrics

Ride, the midnight sail Leaving from the quayside in the rain Ride, the midnight sail Just once around your life and home again You've weighed all of your baggage and you've got your ticket, dear There's plenty of room for memories and everybody's here Faces from the circus, pipe dreams stowed away And we're heading out from Karma Town across the Newborn Bay Ride, the midnight sail Leaving from the quayside in the rain Ride, the midnight sail Just once around your life and home again You think all you've forgotten Has somehow gone away But it's time to put things overboard They're not needed here today Floating with the jetsam As the weightless shoulders fly Behind the screen we're washing clean To get you home ‘n dry Ride, the midnight sail Leaving from the quayside in the rain Ride, the midnight sail Just once around your life and home again (x4) I'm going home on the midnight sail (x3) Take me home on the midnight sail, on the midnight sail
