From the recording Piece
Lyrics
Yellow Boat
on the sea
my yellow boat
only the three
to stay afloat
who will greet me
my arms are bare
tales of water
are all i have to share
chorus:
and the river runs
though it’s only knee deep
and the ice that melts
becomes the rag\ing sea
they see my beauty
and gather round
my cup is empty
my boat aground
in between
the sea and sky
my yellow boat
rendered them blind
chorus:
i wonder where
the treasures lie
this peeling paint
i though was dry
from the east all finery
i filled my boat
so all would heed me honestly
but heads were turned
by shinery
my yellow boat
a skeleton for all to see
chorus:
and the wind that blows through the leaves
is the wind that tears
the dust from the fields
on the sea
my yellow boat
