   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
