Boatman

歌詞

Hearts were exploding around us As we drifted south in the bay The grey up above and the grey down below Left us with nothing to say. So we drifted along in the silence 'Til the tickle of life trickled in And the rhythm began in the hiss of the sand We were catching fire again. CHORUS: Boatman, I am a river I am a mountain to the sea Boatman, taker and giver Can you deliver me And can I forever run free. We finally caught up to the legends We were walking side by side We'd worked up a plan to go out hand in hand But the long trail wasn't that wide. The water around us was freezing We laughed and threw ourselves in And although we were old, the sting of that cold Pumped up that feeling, here it is again. CHORUS I'm a message in a bottle Adrift on a deep blue sea Searching for some distant shore Waiting for something to be. No longer afraid of falling Cut the strings from the sky We found level ground and set ourselves down Amazing we all didn't die We took each day as given Oh second by second they came The ice and the sun and the thundering guns Good God I was finally sane. CHORUS
