Sail Away - Deep Purple
If you're driftin' on an empty ocean
with no wind to fill your sail,the future, your horizon,
it's like searchin' for
the Holy Grail.
You feel there's no tomorrow
as you look into the water below.
It's only your reflection
and you still ain't got
no place to go.
Thanks Charlie for conceding the C. Musselwhite's song ;D .
Here they are the 145 Songs about ships posted so far and also comprising the great Gordon Lighthouse's batch just added by Charlie and the Deep Purple one by me
