Sailing Round The Room Lyrics - All I Intended To Be - Emmylou Harris

One last gaze upon the sun 

Bid farewell to everyone 

Kick that bucket out the door 

Where I'm going I won't need it anymore 

Gonna lay my burden down 

Take a bird's eye look around 

From the tall pines of Carolina 

All the way to the wall of China 

So I'll go sailing round the room 

Through my window across the silver moon 

No flesh and bone to hold me 

I'll finally set my soul free 

When I go sailing round the room

Life may be just but a dream 

I row my boat on down the stream 

To wake up on a different shore 

Wind up as something I ain't never been before 

I could be a drop of summer rain 

Falling down on an Oklahoma plain 

I won't leave the world behind me 

Look around and you will find me 

So I'll go sailing round the room 

Through my window across the silver moon 

No flesh and bone to hold me 

I'll finally set my soul free 

When I go sailing round the room

(I will be) 

In the smoke from Mauna Loa 

Morning mist from the Shenandoah 

(I will be) 

A grain of sand in the Kalahari 

Magnolia by the Mississippi 

(I will be) 

Birdsong when day is breaking 

Words of love when your heart is aching 

(I will be) 

A bluebonnet by the highway 

I'll be everywhere and always 

When I go sailing round the room 

Through my window across the silver moon 

No flesh and bone to hold me 

I'll finally set my soul free 

When I go sailing round the room 

Through my window across the silver moon 

No flesh and bone to hold me 

I'll finally set my soul free 

When I go sailing round the room
