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 Ive been blue.
Red sails in the sunset,
Im trusting in you.
Swift wings you must borrow.
Make straight for the shore.
We marry tomorrow,
And he goes sailing no more.
Red sails in the sunset
Wayout on the sea.
Oh carry my loved one,
Home safely to me.
