Row

(album: A-Sides And Besides - 2018)

Do you know the fastest road to take me to my home?
I just wanna be there for the long december snow
I may never see the lines, the lines may never show
After turning tables, time is telling me to go

Light along and burn ahead
I'm breaking like the sea
My bed is boxing like a coffin
Fast asleep and dreary [?]

There are things we'll never learn and never understand
My heart is like a bowling ball, so heavy in my hand
And still, I hope to kiss you when we're 70 years old

16 years ago, the place was forest overgrown
You pointed to the parking lot that used to be my home
The sun is like a tether-ball that's ready to implode
The prophet burning in my mind is loosening her hold

And it seems I'm still here
You have got me madly, dear
Bound by all the things we said
We wish would stay, but sure enough

We'll row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream

Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream

Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream
Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream
