Featuring Keith Marshall - drums. Bob Holland - piano.

lyrics

On a day like this, where would you rather be.
Floating on the water, sitting on the sea.
On a day like this, where would you rather be.
So point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.

Well these times are getting harder, that ain't no lie.
But out here on the water we've got the sea we've got the sky.
On a day like this, where would you rather be.
So point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.

Jump into the ocean, leave your troubles behind.
Dive into the ocean, it's good for your mind.

Well this world ain't going nowhere sept around and around.
And life is like a wave, it goes up, it goes down.
On a day like this, where would you rather be.
Point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.
Point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.
Point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.
we'll sail away.
Point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away.
Point me in the right direction, and we'll sail away from here.
From here, we'll sail away, we'll sail away.
