Emmylou Harris – Sailing Round The Room lyrics

One last gaze upon the sun Bid farewell to everyone Kicked that bucket out the door Where I'm goin I won't need it anymore Gonna lay my burden down Take a birdseye look around From the tall pines of Carolina All the way to the Wall of China So I go sailing round the room Through my window, cross the silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room Life may be just but a dream Rode my boat on down the stream To wake up on a different shore Wind up to something I aint never been before I could be a drop of summer rain Fallin down on an Oklahoma plain Gonna leave the world behind me Look around and you will find me So I go sailing round the room Through my window, cross the silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room [I... will be...] In the smoke from Mauna Loa Morning mist on the Shenandoah [I... will be...] Grain of sand in the Kalahari Magnolia by the Mississippi [I... will be...] Bird song when the day is breaking Words of love when your heart is aching Blue bonnet by the highway I'll be everywhere and always When I go sailing round the room Through my window, cross the silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room Through my window, cross the silver moon No flesh and bone to hold me I'll finally set my soul free When I go sailing round the room Explain Request ×
