Yeah float along
The river of song
Come step on my boat
it's made of wood and bone
My blood going upstream
Just to write
your name in stone
She’s my star, my sun
Warms my heart
And her soul stirs my skull
It ain’t so dull, kick the ball along
Waiting for you in the hall
Wished we could see
Wished you would need me
as much as I do you
Any way today
any path you know
Led nowhere, but I let it go
do you even know yet?
What you want, girl
I make it show for you
Let me tell you what to heed
let the water spill over your feet
away your need of desire
to be admired, to be satisfied
and you’ll be
Happy
My soul feels higher
And I
Feel a lot lighter
Feel like there's nothing I can buy her
A smile’s enough for us
Walk a mile without a word
Oh yeah that’s what I am talking about
you’re still a child, and so am I
Should listen to the voice, whispering to me
From the sky, ‘Boy, you gonna make it right!’
There’s no one I please
and when myself is at ease
For people to see, that I can’t be
what they would want me to be
Won’t you understand, I’m just me
tired of trying to change
Cause I don’t know it
yourself, how could you ever know it
When it is right, but you’ll know it when
The time is right, ohhhhh
Man, alright yeah
There’s comes a night
Takes the glow
Off the stream, drawing a beam of light
floating up into the sky
