Horizon
香坂みゆき Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
On the horizon I saw a ship go sailing by
This was the ship that I'd often dreamed of
A ship made of gold with a golden sail above
This was the ship that I dreamed would someday bring my love
On the horizon out where the lonely seagulls cry
On the horizon my ship of dreams came sailing by
It kept comin' closer and closer I swear
Closer and closer 'til I woke up and found you there
Oh, on the horizon, the horizon, the horizon
