Red Sails In the Sunset lyrics
by Frederick Loewe
( Oh come back to me, Oh come back to me
Red Sailors, Red Sailors, bring my love to me! )
'Twas down where fisher-folk gather
I wandered far from the throng
I heard a fisher-girl singing
And this refrain was her song . .
( Oh O'oo ! )
Red sails in the sunset
Way out on the sea
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . .
He sailed at the dawning
All day I've been blue
Red sails in the sunset
I'm trusting in you . .
Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And he goes sailin' no more . .
Red sails in the sunset
Way out on the sea
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . .
Oh carry my loved one
Home safely to me . .
