I want to sleep on a boat
Oh I want to sleep on a boat
And I'll sail away with you
I'll sail away with you

Oh but the winds are much to strong
And I am feeing weak

So...
So I want to fly on a balloon
Oh I want to fly on a balloon
And I want to fly with you
I want to fly with you

Oh but the winds are much to strong
And I am feeling weak

So...
So I don't know if you
Like to sleep on boats too
I won't make you go
But you'll come I know

I know

Boy when out on a boat tonight
Waiting on his lover
Seen his mermaid bride in the moonlight
And the arms of another
She said "standing on the water is easier to do
Then to try and be a family living here with you
And the more I've been thinking
The more I know I'm living alone

Now they see him out on the waterways
Rolling on the foam
Only memory for a future
Only ocean for a home
'Cause Amelia's the name that she calls herself these days
And "birds! birds!" is all we heard before she flew away
And the more I've been thinking
The more I know I'm living alone
