Sail On - The Commodores

Sail on down the line
About half a mile or so
Don't really wanna know
Where you're going

Maybe once or twice
Time after time I tried
To hold on to what we got
But now you're going

And I don't mind about the things you're gonna say
I give all my money and my time
I know it's a shame
But I'm giving you back your name

Yes, I'll be on my way
I won't be back to stay
I guess I'll move along
I'm looking for a good time

Sail on down the line
Funny how the time can go
Friends says they told me so
But it doesn't matter

It was plain to see
That a small town boy like me
Just wasn't your cup of tea
I was wishful thinking

I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy
And you gave me nothing in return
You know it ain't so hard to say
Would you please just go away

I've thrown away the blues
I'm tired of being used
I want everyone to know
I'm looking for a good time
Good time

Sail on honey
Good times never felt so good
Sail on sugar
Good times never felt so good...
