Outward bound 
Upon a ship that sails no ocean 
Outward bound 
It has no crew but me and you 
All alone 
When just a minute ago 
The shore was filled with people 
With people that we knew 

Outward bound 
Upon a journey without ending 
Outward bound 
Uncharted waters beneath our bow
Far behind, the green familiar shore is fading into time
And time has left us now
 
So farewell, adieu, so long, vaya con Dios 
May they find whatever they are looking for 
Remember when the wine was better than ever again 
We could not ask 
We could not ask for more 

Outward bound 
Upon a ship with tattered sails 
Outward bound 
Along a crooked and lonesome trail 
Things we learned will just be satisfied in knowing 
And we’ll tell it to our kids as a fairytale 

So farewell, adieu, so long, vaya con Dios 
May they find whatever they are looking for 
Remember when the wine was better than ever again
We could not ask 
We could not ask for more 
We could not ask 
We could not ask for more
