Manitou

I know a place where a tall ship is sailing.
She's leaving from port yet today.
The good crew and captain they are there waiting;
Waiting to take us away.

I want to sail with you on the Manitou, the tall ship in the bay.
I want to sail with you on the Manitou,
And let the Manitou – take us away.
Let the Manitou – take us away.

The Manitou can show us the islands,
and maybe even Sleeping Bear.
The Manitou can show us the sunset.
On Manitou we can breathe fresh air.

I want to be with you on the Manitou,
and watch the stars come out at night.
I want to be with you on the Manitou,
and let the Manitou – take us away.
Let the Manitou – take us away.

We only have so many hours. We only have so many days,
So I want to sail with you on the Manitou, before they all slip away.
Before they all pass away.

I know a place where a tall ship is sailing.
It’s leaving from port yet today.
The good crew and captain they are waiting;
waiting to take us away.
