    LYRICS
    Well, it's not far down to paradise
    At least it's not for me
    And if the wind is right you can sail away
    And find tranquility
    Oh, the canvas can do miracles
    Just you wait and see
    Believe me
    It's not far to never never land
    No reason to pretend
    And if the wind is right you can find the joy
    Of innocence again
    Oh, the canvas can do miracles
    Just you wait and see
    Believe me
    Sailing
    Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
    Just a dream and the wind to carry me
    Soon I will be free
    Fantasy
    It gets the best of me
    When I'm sailing
    All caught up in the reverie
    Every word is a symphony
    Won't you believe me?
    Sailing
    Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
    Just a dream and the wind to carry me
    And soon I will be free
    Well, it's not far back to sanity
    At least it's not for me
    And if the wind is right you can sail away
    And find serenity
    Oh, the canvas can do miracles
    Just you wait and see
    Really, believe me
    Sailing
    Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
    Just a dream and the wind to carry me
    And soon I will be free
    ABOUT CHRISTOPHER CROSS
    Christopher Cross burst onto the music scene with his 1979 self-titled debut album produced by Michael Omartian. The lead single “Ride Like The Wind” spent 4 weeks at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and was quickly followed up by Cross’ most popular single to date (and first #1 hit) “Sailing”, which later became known as the archetype for the Yacht Rock genre. In 1981, Cross became the first artist in Grammy history to win the “Big Four” most prestigious awards in a single night; Record of the Year (for the single “Sailing”), Album of the Year, Song of the Year (also “Sailing”), and Best New Artist. Later that year Cross released “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do)” which he co-wrote with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer, Peter Allen, and was the title-theme for the 1981 film “Arthur” starring Dudley Moorre and Liza Minnelli. The song earned Cross his second #1 and the Oscar for Best Original Song at the 1981 Academy Awards. Cross’ sophomore album “Another Page” was released in 1983 and featured the singles “Think of Laura” and “All Right”. Cross has sold over 10M albums worldwide and his songs have been covered and sampled by NSYNC, Puff Daddy, Avant, Shirley Bassey, Dione Warwick, and many more.

I finally got to go on a gentle boat to sail with a friend after many years of illness. It was everything I thought it would be! I felt free. Thank you for this beautiful song Christopher. It was a lifesaver❤

    One of the most stunning memorable moments of my life:
    June 1980 living in South Padre Island/ Port Isabel, Tx. Gorgeous day. I lived across the street from the beach I could see it through my picture window which faced the ocean. It was already a stunning crystal clear day with the sunlight dancing and glistening all over the water. It was the day of The World Hobey Cat Races. There was a large number of Hobey Cats racing back and forth on the water with their gorgeous colorful sails. I was cleaning house with my twins playing on the floor and I was listening to the radio. This song came on the radio as I was looking out the window at the sailboats. It was a breathtaking sensory overload.... a gift.

    This is probably the hands down my most favorite songs of all time. My dear friend becky Bliss and my dear brother James Blair introduced me to this song. It conjures up bitter sweet moments. Becky Ann and James Bkair made some wonderful memories. I chose this song at my dear departed brother's funeral in 1984. I laugh through my sorrowful tears sometimes when I hear this song. They both died tragically but I know I heard the bell ring three times each so they earned their wings are are saiking in heaven with the blessed hoky trinity. Rest in Peace James Blair and future sister in law and dear friend. Fate didn't allow them to marry but I imagine when they appeared at saint Peter's gate he handed them their marriage certificate and sailed them right up to heaven. Beautiful song❤
