All ashore, we’re sailing
To an island of dreams somewhere
All ashore, we’re sailing
Cast away every fear and care

So stay in my arms till the storms are through
Till the new lights of home come in view
All ashore, we’re sailing
To the island where dreams come true.

 Transcribed from John Wright’s 78 RPM Record Collection

NB. In the last line, Al Bowlly sings, “To the harbour where dreams come true”
