Sailin’ in the Moonlight

Sailin' in the moonlight
(J. Veerman/J. Keizer/J. Tuijp)

Children of the sea, we were so young and fancy free
Down the harbour lights, the place we longed to be
Seagulls spread their wings, still hear the waves come rolling in
Where the fishing boats were moored, day by day

All those memories pursued me on and on
So I'm bound to be, sailing the sea

Tonight we're sailin' in the moonlight
Along the shores of Aphrodite, a love
A rendez vous, in shades of blue
Tonight the silence of the ocean
A sound of love's emotion, the witness of delight

Dreaming on the shore, about a mermaid I adore
With me as naval hero, yeah, when I was young

All those memories pursued me on and on
So I'm bound to be, sailing the sea

Tonight we're sailin' in the moonlight
Along the shores of Aphrodite, a love
A rendez vous, in shades of blue
Tonight the silence of the ocean
A sound of love's emotion, the witness of delight
Tonight the silence of the ocean
A sound of love's emotion, the witness of delight
