Sail Away, Soldier Lyrics - Singles - Shaun Canon

Sail Away Soldier 

(Shaun Barrowes, Maddie Wilson) 

Vs. 1 

I picture you in your stripes 

You're looking might strong 

Remember back on simpler days 

We were jumping in the pond 

And I was having trouble swimming 

Back to higher ground 

You rescued me without a thought 

Now I'm safe and sound 

Chorus 1 

Sail away soldier 

Never forget 

The stories I told you 

On the swing set 

We were just kids then 

So many hours ago 

So sail away soldier 

Just find your way home 

Vs. 2 

I fought you back in grade school 

For the cutest girl in town 

She's standing by your side now 

And she's right where she belongs 

I recall our wilder days 

When we would scale the hardest climb 

You'll always be the fearless leader 

In my eyes 

Chorus 

Sail away soldier 

Never forget 

I'm always behind you 

I follow your steps 

We're all so amazed by 

The courage you've shown 

So sail away soldier 

Find your way 

Bridge 

Home is where 

Your heart will stay 

With friends and family 

Holding on 

All our prayers 

We send your way 

Even now, 

As you're sailing on 

Chorus 3 

Sail away soldier 

There's no easy goodbye 

Just think of the sun, it's 

The same on our side 

When the night falls, just 

Look to the stars 

We're under the same sky 

And God's never far
