THESE BOATS

There's nothing in the bird that makes it sing
There's nothing in the sun who give it light
There's nothing like a ship to help me float
Or the docks that keep me awake a night

Time is gonna roll if we stand still
Earth is gonna move if we lie down
There's nothing like a ship to help me float,
or tidal wave to help me drown

But I'll wait for you here
Since you cannot stand in fear
And if I've left or if I'm gone,
These boats will take you home

I shredded up the copies of your Bible
I had the words in my head
Noah had the flood and you had your demons,
everyone's got something coming around

Nothing like the phone calls you gave to me
Woken up early with the early bird
There's nothing like a ship to help me float,
or a tidal wave to help you drown

But I'll wait for you here
Since you cannot stand in fear
And if I've left or if I'm gone
These boats will take you home

But I'll wait for you here
Since you cannot stand in fear
And if I've left or if I'm gone
These boats will take you home

These boats will take you home
