I am a boat, and life is the sea.
Im minding my own business,
Trying to get from point A to point B.
Wave after wave, life crashes into my boat.
Wave after wave I barely stay a float.

I race to my lover, wherever she may be.
I am but lonely in this boat,
I cry for her, at last!  her kingdom by the sea...

I speak up and with Cause,
She stares open, looking right through me.
I wait for its a long pause...
She says to me, "oh dear traveler from the sea,
You come but I need no rescue your trip has ended for I seek and wait for my lover"
"But I travelled over your crused sea, surprised i didnt flip, wave after wave I sit, and all this time it was for another?"
"Oh weary traveller you have much to learn,
For I am not your queen, but just a girl waiting her turn."

With that she let me go on my way,
Hopeful that I find happiness some other day.
I fell in love with my travel to get her,
beauty, grace, the memory is now a blur.

You won't be forgotten, ill try to keep close, just in case you ever fear,
Your call will reach me, no matter how far or how near.

My little boat carrys on with hope in my heart, that one day ill find her
may we never fall apart.
