[Verse 1]
The sun coming up on the ocean
Stayed up and talked all night
Too late for me to change my mind
Taking the road down the coastline
Makin' a break with the past
Some things were never meant to last
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
[Verse 2]
It's gonna hurt for a long time
I needed her so much
But she turned her back on love
Learnin' to pick up the pieces
I'm tryin' to make a new start
Next time, I'll hold on to my heart
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
[Verse 3]
I am no stranger to hard times
I know how deep it cuts
Somebody pays the price for love
Long as these wheels keep on turnin'
I'll stay out on the road
And I'll find my way back home
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
And I want to be free once again
The sun coming up on the ocean
Stayed up and talked all night
Too late for me to change my mind
Taking the road down the coastline
Makin' a break with the past
Some things were never meant to last
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
[Verse 2]
It's gonna hurt for a long time
I needed her so much
But she turned her back on love
Learnin' to pick up the pieces
I'm tryin' to make a new start
Next time, I'll hold on to my heart
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
[Verse 3]
I am no stranger to hard times
I know how deep it cuts
Somebody pays the price for love
Long as these wheels keep on turnin'
I'll stay out on the road
And I'll find my way back home
[Chorus]
Sail on, wings, carry me home
'Cause I want to be free on the wind
Wings, it's taking so long
And I want to be free, I want to be free
And I want to be free once again
