a boat on the river - katherine priddy lyrics

this city’s not home, though it knows me well
it’s cradled me close for some time
but when i’m alone and the traffic stops beating
i can’t get the thought from my mind

am i just lost? could i be lonely?
is it just the rain we’ve had so much of lately?
or is it just that this city’s been bringing me down?

all that i want is a boat on the river
and someone to hold and time to deliver me on
till i’m old, i’ll go where the current takes me
and all that i want is to live slow and easy
one day at a time is enough speed to please me
a dog by the door, someone to sing me to sleep
sing me to sleep

the blue lights fly by with their siren song
that calls to me all through the night
this city won’t sleep, but i’m trying to keep hold
of a dream that stays just out of sight

to rise with the dawn, to live by the seasons
to accept that things change without asking for reasons
to sleep like a baby, to love and be loved in return
all that i want is a boat on the river
and someone to hold and time to deliver me on
till i’m old, i’ll go where the current takes me
all that i want is a soft breeze to blow me
the sky up above and the water below me
to find a horizon and fade into nothing at all

drifting, drifting on and on
drifting, drifting on and on

and all that i want is to live slow and easy
one day at a time is enough speed to please me
a dog by the door, someone to sing me to sleep
