Sailin’ the Wind Lyrics

Summer in our sky ships, forever, sailing the wind
Somewhere Sunday morning brings us miles from earthbound, sailing the wind
September, keeping kite time together we summon the wind
Swaying to a gentle lady's breeze of ocean, sailing the wind
Up among the clouds I see my face miles below
Tugging on the string, a travelin' thing in my soul
I've got half a mind to close my eyes and let the string go, sailing the wind

Children, bring your kite lines to come and summon the wind
Tomorrow we'll be watching a sad sea and star bound, sailing the wind
Tomorrow we'll be watching a sad sea and star bound, sailing the wind
Up among the clouds I see my face miles below
Tugging on the string, a travelin' thing in my soul
I've got half a mind to close my eyes and let the string go, sailing the wind

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
