Lyrics Demis Roussos

Demis Roussos

White Sails

White sails... White sails

Mast running high

Run and knock in every door

Tell the women not to cry

Here they come

I can see most everyone

In the early morning sun

I can hear the sing from men

See how the come

Trough the wind and the ocean waves

See how they stand so mighty

One hundred days

Since they went for beyond the sea

Leaving us in empty anxiety

How many tears did we cried

Waiting for this day

In our dark imagination

How many hopes of return do they now fulfilled

In this happy celebration

White sails... White sails

Mast running high

Run and knock in every door

Tell the women not to cry

White sails... White sails

Mast running high

Run and knock in every door

Tell the women not to cry

Here they come

I can see most everyone

In the early morning sun

I can hear the sing from men

In every churches bell of echo in every home

Spread the good news around you

Tell everyone that the men have at last return

And that every wish has come true

How many days did we pray for each one of them

In our only expectation

How many hopes of return do they now fulfilled

In this happy celebration

White sails... White sails

Mast running high

Run and knock in every door

Tell the women not to cry

Here they come

I can see most everyone

In the early morning sun

I can hear the sing from men
