I bought a boat to sail to you
It was white as the cliffs of Dover
And on her foot she had a clue
It was all that her sweet head could carry

Oh, Avalon
The seas were high and the days were long
And the signal on the phone is gone
Oh, Avalon

The captain never shed a tear
As he s waving goodbye to his family
The first mate whispered in his ear
And he fell when the captain screamed heartily

Woah, Avalon
The seas were high and the nights were long
And the signal on the phone is gone
Oh, Avalon

They were met while we dreamed
of the caps on the coast
We all heard the siren s song
She was calling the captain to follow her down
And in the morning the captain was gone

And we sailed in irons for 14 years
Upon treacherous waters uncharted
And finally when land appeared
We were right back to where we got started

Woah, Avalon
We were the journey all along
And the signal on the phone s still gone
Oh, Avalon

Oh, Avalon
