The white ship has sailed and left me here again 
Out in the mist, I was so near again 
Sailing on the sea of dreams 
How far away it seems 
Sailing upon the white ship 

Home through the night here in my darkened room 
Sails of white across the misty moon 
Floating across the sky 
Burning into my eye 
Sailing upon the white ship 

Out of my mind nothing flows 
Alone on the shore, but that’s how it goes 
Everyone knows 
How the wind blows 
The white ship 

Out of my mind nothing flows 
Alone on the shore, but that’s how it goes 
Everyone knows 
How the wind blows 
The white ship 

The white ship has sailed and left me here again 
Out in the mist, I was so near again 
Sailing on the sea of dreams 
How far away it seems 
Sailing upon the white ship 
Sailing upon the white ship 
Sailing upon the white ship
