Sailover - P.F. Sloan

You live neglected

It’s to be expected

Goes around, comes around

Left the apartment

Head bent

Eyes on the ground

I walked a ways home

Picked up my phone

Friend, please don’t let me down

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Sail on by?

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Come again?

While I was dealin'

With this feelin'

It’s too much to explain

Walkin' that fine line

With enough wine

You can flip all that pain

I can’t believe how

Much I want

To see you again

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Sail on by?

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Don’t you

Ah, when she took me to bed

All I could hear in my head

Was «Damn, I still love her»

She betrayed my surprise

By the look in her eyes

That said «Do you really want another?»

Saturday

Holiday

Hopin' you find the time

Anyways, I heard myself say

«Have a better day»

And I lied

Okay

I confess that I was

I was really hopin'

Her heart would open

This time would be diff’rent

She said «Baby, you never know

Which way love comes and goes

So you keep on wishin'»

I said «Honey, you better believe

That it’s me that you need

Or you’ll never know what you’re missin'»

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Sail on by?

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Just sail on by?

Why don’t you

Sailover, sailover

Sail on by?
