Lyrics Red Sails in the Sunset - Emile Ford & The Checkmates

Red Sails in the Sunset

Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
Instrumental interlude
Swift wings you must borrow
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more
Way out on the sea (ooh-wee-ooh, wee-ooh)
Oh, carry my loved one
(words in parentheses are sung by background singers only)
