The Boat Lyrics by Ira Wolf

Rock Bottom

2023

I was a boat, drifting at sea
Longing for shores that I'd never seen
And there was a storm that capsized me
Led me to land, just in your reach
And you were a rope, fast to the ground
Ready to hold anything down
So we tied the knots onto the bow
And we made a pact, we made a vow
We could stay here tethered to land
No letting go, no looking back
But days turned to years, rocks turned to sand
And suddenly I was turning with them
And ever so slight, you started to fray
And I felt the tide pull mе away
And somewhere bеtween the crashing of waves
I was set free, and I saw you break
'Cause I was a boat, meant for the sea
Tied to a shore that I'm scared to leave
But I need the space, I need the sky
I need to chase horizon lines
I had to set sail to see what I'd find
To prove that I can, I'll leave you behind
Now I'm just a boat, drifting at sea
Missing the rope that used to hold me
But I am a boat, that's all I'll be
I am a boat, I'm just a boat
