"Land Ho" lyrics - ROGER HODGSON

ROGER HODGSON
"Land Ho"

Please don't turn me away
Please don't leave me alone
Oh I'm not asking for paradise
I've 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 meto 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
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...
