Lyrics
Fly the banners high, they check the food and water s all on board
There s a journey to prepare, they re sailing off towards the promised land
no-one knows if they will reach the shore
They check the food and water s all on board, they re sailing to a better place to dwell To, they check the food and water s all on board
Anchored in the surf, the quayside s full of friends
No-one knows if they will reach the shore, set sail for many days
Their journey s at an end, fly the banners high, set sail for many days
As plymouth slips away, the sails are open wide, fly the banners high
They re sailing to america, no-one knows if they will reach the shore, no-one knows if they will reach the shore
No-one knows if they will reach the shore, there s a journey to prepare Sailing, they re sailing to america
They re sailing to america, a farewell in their hands Sailing, they re sailing to america
As plymouth slips away, the pilgrims set their feet on virgin land To, they ll not be back again
They re sailing to america, excitement in the air Saxon, set the rigging high
They re sailing to america, they re sailing to america, anchored in the surf
The lookout searching for the distant shore, the lookout searching for the distant shore
A farewell in their hands, there s a journey to prepare
Their journey s at an end, they ll not be back again To, the mayflower s on her way
they ll not be back again
fly the banners high
Their journey s at an end, they re sailing to america
They re waiting for the tide, their journey s at an end, they ll not be back again
Anchored in the surf, they re sailing to america
They ll not be back again, fly the banners high To, they re sailing to america
Set sail for many days, the pilgrims set their feet on virgin land
They re sailing to america, the mayflower s on her way, they ll not be back again
