If I could sail a galleon ship, a long, lonely rider across the sky
Seek out mysteries while you sleep
And treasures money cannot buy
For you know I see you everywhere
A servant girl, an empress
My galleon ship will fly and fall
Fall and fly and fly and fall
Deep into your loveliness
[Chorus]
And if we rise my love
Before the daylight comes
A thousand galleon ships will sail
Ghostly around the morning sun
As the city rises up, as the city rises up, as the city rises up
[Verse 2]
For we are not alone, it seems, so many riders in the sky
The winds of longing in their sails, searching for the other side
[Chorus]
And if we rise my love
Oh my darling precious one
We'll stand and watch the galleon ships
Circle around the morning sun
[Verse 1] If I could sail a galleon ship, a long, lonely rider across the sky Seek out mysteries while you sleep And treasures money cannot buy For you know I see you everywhere A servant girl, an empress My galleon ship will fly and fall Fall and fly and fly and fall Deep into your loveliness [Chorus] And if we rise my love Before the daylight comes A thousand galleon ships will sail Ghostly around the morning sun As the city rises up, as the city rises up, as the city rises up [Verse 2] For we are not alone, it seems, so many riders in the sky The winds of longing in their sails, searching for the other side [Chorus] And if we rise my love Oh my darling precious one We'll stand and watch the galleon ships Circle around the morning sun Explain Request ×
