Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm sailin' away

To a land of opportunity

The sun will shine and birds will sing there everyday

I'm sailin' away

And I hope that you remember me

It was fun, we had out run, hip hip hooray

[Verse 2]

You said "Hello," I loved you so

Just like in a movie scene

I want you to know

I had to let it go

I'm fallin' in love again

[Verse 3]

I'm runnin' away

To a place where you won't bother me

We won't talk for a while, we'll be okay

And I'm changin' my name

To a word that's really hard to say

It's no one's fault, I'm just too young

And you're insane

[Verse 4]

I wasted my time

I missed all the signs

And it ruined my holiday

I want you to know

I had to let it go

I'm fallin' in love again

[Verse 5]

Uh, I just gotta believe there's somethin' better

Uh, I just gotta believe there's somethin' more than you and me

Uh, I just gotta believe, I just gotta believe

[Verse 6]

You said "Hello," I loved you so

I felt like a kid again

I want you to know

I had to let it go

I'm fallin' in love again

[Verse 7]

Uh, I just gotta believe there's somethin' better

Uh, I just gotta believe there's somethin' more than you and me

Uh, I just gotta believe, I just gotta believe

[Verse 8]

I'm sailin' away

To a land of opportunity
