RED SAILS IN THE SUNSET
(Hugh Williams / J. Kennedy)

Red sails in the sunset
way out on the sea
oh, carry my loved one
home safely to me
He sailed at the dawning
All day I’ve been blue
Red sails in the sunset
I’m trusting in you
Swift wings you must borrow
make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
and he goes sailing no more
Red sails in the sunset
way out on the sea
oh, carry my loved one
home safely to me

Swift wings you must borrow
make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
and he goes sailing no more
Red sails in the sunset
way out on the sea
oh, carry my loved one
home safely to me, oh oh
home safely to me
home safely to me, oh oh
home safely to me
