On the horizon, 
out where the ocean meets the sky 
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 gold sail aboard 
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 
Sailing to me with a cargo so rare
 It kept coming closer and closer, I swear 
Closer and closer 'till I woke up 
And found you there 
Closer and closer till I woke up and found you there
