Please don't turn me away, please don't leave me alone
   Oh I'm not asking for paradise, I just got to find me a home
  
   I said land-ho, will I be sailing forever
   Oh-oh I gotta find some shelter from the cold
   Land-ho, will I be searching forever
   Oh-oh I gotta find an anchor for my soul
  
   Well you may think I'm a fool, and think I'm running away
   But I've had enough of the city lights, oh I've got no reason to stay
  
   I said land-ho, will I be sailing forever
   Oh-oh I need some wind to help me to my goal
   Land-ho, will I be searching forever
   Oh-oh, I gotta find an anchor for my soul
  
   When you're alone there's not a sail in sight
   Oh it's cold and dark and there's no one there to see you through the night
   There once was a lady made me feel alright
   But she couldn't stay so one lonely day, she just sailed away
   And took away my life
  
   Maybe I'll always be sad, and maybe there'll always be strife
   Drifting alone with a saddened tone, afloat on the ocean of life
  
   I said land-ho, will I be sailing forever
   Oh-oh sometimes I feel my ship is getting old
   Land-ho, will I be dreaming forever
   Oh-oh I gotta find an anchor for my soul
  
   Will I be sailing forever...
