Styx - Come Sail Away Lyrics
I'm sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
Cause I've got to be free, free to face the life that's ahead of me
On board, I'm the captain, so climb aboard
We'll search for tomorrow on every shore
And I'll try, oh Lord, I'll try to carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We lived happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me now
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
We climbed aboard their starship, we headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me now
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away, come sail away

Always turn down my pot of gold
My friend danced to this for a show and now it represents all of my good memories
This so makes me wanna have a dance partner. Which i dont have.
This is the best cover version ever....! Cartman doesn’t quite hit the notes lol
oh how much fun this was for me, seems like 100 years ago, it's hard to be old,
70s and 80s music always the best..
Oh babe tyx..
Saw the Nitro Circus movie and the guy sang this to himself before he did the stunt where he tried to flip the car and roll as many times as he can
greetings from the Philippines, I miss styx
Come sail away with me!!!
You guys grew up with some badass tunes!! I love it!!
Lead singer had to leave band because of stage lights ? Is this true ? God bless him. What a time to be alive.
I always love Styx!
To dad from Jr
I'm thinking this was 1978. I distinctly remember being in 6th grade--possibly that spring. I am sure there are plenty of people right around my age--now in their early 50s--for whom this song is very evocative.
How does a band get rid of this voice and continue? I mean Gowan is awesome, but this is insanely good.
1:33 ppl dont look to the sea enough nowadays its a good thing we have this song
01-01-2020. Homeless Donald Gould brought me here
Happy new year everyone 2020 baby
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I grew up in the 70s listening to this band and I still go see them every chance I get, in both incarnations. They are superb and so is this song
this just isn’t the same
Stone ocean closing theme
Nah man this song fits Phantom Blood so much better
who else is sick and tired of being sick and tired - monster 2019
What a amazing song. Classic.
Greetings from THE BRIDE OF JESUS CHRIST 🌟✝️✨
Carry on is our way...
Love and Light 💖🙏

My senior class graduation theme song. May 1985. Damn, where has nearly 35 years gone? I miss my youth. I miss back when everyone (including my mom and twin brother) were still alive.
Today is the last day I will see or talk to the boys. I’ll miss them.
What happened?
nicolas ignacio gutierrez mardones I got drafted to wwiii
my goodness.... that piano & those lyrics !! i haven't heard this song in way too long. i always used to like it.... but after listening again here, i now recognize that it is far more of a true masterpiece, than i ever realized years ago.
Hell yea
My music love all kul
Homeless dude with name Donald brought me here ...
Never did in my youth realized what great vocals the lead singer had...great memories with this song
Anyone here from smiths class
flames5566 yah me
Was a law pass in the 60s that everyone must have long hair till jan 1, 1980
If possible I want these guys to play at my wake. Its in the will.
I'm playing this for jazz band
Swing it
@77Wells it has a light rock tempo
@Andrew Sieam Do it as a samba
Styx Sux...Infantile Sesame Street sound. Man, they were lame.
Styx...the ultimate wuss band. Their sound is so lame. Music for those 12 and under, for sure. Styx...Please "sail away" and dont come back.
Been here after watching the goldbergs
judith Drexhage oh my god I looooooved that scene!!!!
Me too😂😂😂😂
This song brings back so many good memories. The line about childhood friends and the dreams we had really hits home now. The girl I was going with when this came out died from an overdose about twenty years ago. Now every time I hear it I think of her and wonder what might've been. Wendy wherever you're at, I still remember...
Lovely song by Dennis. Hated it in my youth but love it now. Brilliant.
2:20 - 2:45 WELCOME
TO THE BLACK PARADE
Styx is the greatest American rock band, and they only caught a bad rep because most critics are cynical assholes.
This is and will always be the greatest band in the late ‘70’s early 80’s. I agree that they should be in the Rock and Roll HOF.
Listen 2019
I just paid attention to the meaning of this song. Now I'm sad because Christmas day my fiance Will be gone 8 months.
That's tough I know. My wife passed just after Xmas in 1999. Life goes on, things get better, this I promise.
Rose Milton Aliens. They're talking about aliens.
My dad loves this song, I love it and my son loves it.... thank you Styx for a life time of music. Thank you Tommy Shaw for keeping at it.
I listen to this because I'm bombing cities in Roblox with the Bismarck.

"That's 70's Show" loves this music ^^
Takes me back to high school 1977/'78; over 40 years later and still sounding great.

Well, we finally found my fave Styx song on my playlist........the music was so calm then.......way too angry now........I use to play this so much as a kid........I so miss this kind of music
Anyone else here from Cloak and Dagger?
This song speaks to me. I can listen to it over and over. Something about it gives me hope and I always feel much more positive after hearing it. I feel like anything is possible when I hear this.
great song please check out Styx The Grand illusion Album Review on my channel

This song is THE BEST!!!
I don't no why but me being a young teen dislike a lot of thing people my age like but Love music and style from the 19's.
I guess I'm just retro for my age.
I would like to see real life bands like this now a days.
great song please check out Styx The Grand illusion Album Review on my channel
OK BOOMERS... your music WAS better!

Bucket list. I will see them in DC. I was born 1980 but always felt I was robbed growing up in the 90s.
great song please check out Styx The Grand illusion Album Review on my channel
Myself & my brother actually bought the Mr.Roboto& Hall& Oats( Heart & Soul part 1) in 1983 the albums back in California when I still was living in L. A.😉☺😕✊👊💪☁💰🎤🎹🎶🎵🎼🎧🎸🍸🍻🍺🍷🍹🇺🇸
The one song that is the literal equivalent of laying into a reclining chair sipping a nice glass of red wine (while doing that under 21). And I guess in the end you forget your on top of a nuclear missile silo and hitching a ride on the next trip out of town.
great song please check out Styx The Grand illusion Album Review on my channel

Phil Dunphy brought me here
Saw Dennis DeYoung a few weeks ago here in Pompano Beach, FL. Still has that great voice at almost 73 years old
Insta legendary
Eric forman is a genious
If you were a teen in the 70's this song was a staple for every party you went to .
Saw them in '78 during the "Pieces of Eight" tour and again in '83 for the "Kilroy was Here" tour. Both shows were great!
This is my dad's favorite song.... I love you dad...TT❣
Eric Cartman for Rock n roll hall of fame :)
Is anyone here from IT the musical because of you are then you too are a man of culture
Does anyone else notice an interesting influence of bohemian rhapsody? I never thought about it until I saw the video just now how it's arranged with piano and how the band comes in. Also this song was released two years after Bohemian Rhapsody.

Rest In Peace Alex Rust!!

My daddy would sing this song when I was growing up. He would even sing it in the truck with no music. My daddy still does after 25 years...
This needs two minutes more of the guitar work at the end.
Listen to the live version.
who came here from south park
I love Styx and Dennis DeYoung. Saw them live twice. Awesome shows.
