We are leaving, leaving

Leaving on the tide

Come and stand beside me, love

The water is so wide You can hear the sailors calling

At the dawning of the day

Yesterday is falling, love

And je suis desole, je suis desole Je suis desole, mais je n'ai pas le choix

Je suis desole, mais la vie me demande ea I am turning, turning

From a land that I loved well

Look ahead my darling one

Across the rolling swell And you can hear the seagulls crying

As we're slipping out of the bay

Yesterday is dying, love

And je suis desole, je suis desole Je suis desole, mais je n'ai pas le choix

Je suis desole, mais la vie me demande ea We are sailing, sailing

For a land that's proud and free

I had no more endurance

For what had become of me And I will do that which I must do, love

And now we're under way

All that I can say to you

Is je suis desole Je suis desole, mais je n'ai pas le choix

Je suis desole, mais la vie me demande ea

Je suis desole, mais je n'ai pas le choix

Je suis desole, mais la vie me demande ea
