[Verse 1]
Open up your heart
If you want to set me free
Full of love, your love
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea

[Verse 2]
Lighten up, my heart
Leave it to the evening breeze
Give me love, your love
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea

[Chorus]
Oh my, I feel love for you
Spreading through my body
I remember how
We can be so loving
I feel love for you now
I feel love for you right now

[Verse 3]
Loosen up, my heart
Let me have some time to be
With a love, oh my love
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea

[Chorus]
Oh my, I feel love for you
Spreading through my body
I remember how
We can be so loving
I feel love for you now
I feel love for you right now

[Post-Chorus]
We're sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea

[Outro]
Oh, I feel love for you now
I feel love for you right now
I feel love for you now
Baby I feel love for you right now
We're sailing on a winedark open sea
Sailing on a winedark open sea
Finish it now

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
