Sailing Round the Room
Emmylou Harris
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
One last gaze upon the sun Bid farewell to everyone Kick that bucket out the door Where I'm going I won't need it anymore Going lay my burden down Take a bird's eye look around From the tall pines of Carolina All the way to wall of China [Chorus: ] So I'll go sailing round the room Through my window, cross to silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room Life maybe be just but a dream Float my boat on down the stream To wake up on a different shore (?) ain't something I've ever been before I could be a drop of summer rain Falling down on an Oklahoma plain Oh leave the world behind me Look around and you will find me [Chorus: ] (I will be) in the smoke from Monaloha Morning mist on the Shenadoah (I will be) a grain of sand in the Kalahara Magnolia by the Mississippi (I will be) birdsong when day is breaking Words of love when your heart is aching (I will be) blue bonnet by the highway I'll be everywhere and always [Chorus: ] Through my window, cross to silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room
