Red Sails in the Sunset

Thursday's Challenge - "Sing us a Song"

RED SAILS IN THE SUNSET
(first recorded by Bing Crosby in 1935)

Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me.
She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue
Red sails in the sunset, I'm trusting in you.

Swift wings you must hurry
Make straight for the shore
We marry tomorrow
And she goes sailing no more.

My first thought when I opened this went straight to Bing...only another setting was in place ~ when he sang to Grace onboard the ~ True Love ~ Suntanned, windblown Honeymooners at last alone Feeling far above par Oh, how lucky we are While I give to you and you give to me True love, true love So on and on it will always be True love, true love For you and I have a guardian angel On high, with nothing to do But to give to you and to give to me Love forever true For you and I have a guardian angel On high, with nothin' to do But to give to you and to give to me Love forever true Love forever true

Outstanding capture. You had the sunset for a background and had a wonderful subject to set against it. V

A wonderful scene, beautifully captured. How about, Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I wanna hold you now Crazy skies all wild above me now Winter howling at my face And everything I held so dear Disappeared without a trace Oh all the times I've tasted love Never knew quite what I had Little Darling if you hear me now Never needed you so bad Spinning round inside my head Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I wanna hold you now I've been talking drunken gibberish Falling in and out of bars Trying to find some explanation here For the way some people are How did it ever come so far Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I wanna hold you now Sail away with me honey I put my heart in your hands Sail away with me honey now, now, now Sail away with me What will be will be I wanna hold you now
