Lyrics
Night Boat
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Standing...
on the edge of the quay
no lights flashing
on the water for me
fog in my mind
darkens in my eyes
silently screaming
for a distant sound
ripple river yellow--
rising for a breath
of breeding and drowns
stillness overcome me
in the night
listen...
to the rising water moan
Chorus:
I'm waiting
waiting, for the nightboat
I'm waiting
waiting, for the nightboat
Shadows all through me
shudder away
echo me, echo me...
am I alone,
or is the river alive?
cuz it echoes me, echoes me--
echoes me...
(chorus x2)
I'm waiting for the nightboat...
