Sail away to the place across the sea
   Leave today so you cannot bother me
   And you cannot fail to see
   That it doesn’t really matter much to me
   No it doesn’t really matter that much to me
  
   Blown away any time I wanted you
   Played away so I thought I’d try it too
   Just to see what I could do
   But it didn’t really matter much to me
   No it didn’t really matter that much to me
  
   Living on the east side, looking to the west side
   Looking on the bright side, bright side
   Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
   Making up for lost time, lost time
  
   Sail away, don’t believe I give a damn
   Go today, go and leave me as I am
   I’ll remember when I can
   And it doesn’t really matter much to me
   No it doesn’t really matter that much to me
  
   Living on the east side, looking to the west side
   Looking on the bright side, bright side
   Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
   Making up for lost time, lost time
  
   Sail away, could it be I’ve found away
   For today is the day I’m gonna write
   ‘Bout the story of my life
   Will it ever really matter much to me?
   Will it ever really matter that much to me?
  
   Living on the east side, looking to the west side
   Looking on the bright side, bright side
   Stepping over that line, checking out the birth-sign
   Making up for lost time, lost time
   Living on the east side, looking to the west side
   Looking on the bright side, bright side....
