Blue Tin Boat

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Paint chipped off the rail Barnacles on the side Two cheap oars in the hull And room for one more ride The rope burn on my palm Still stings when I let go You said this little boat Could carry what I know [Pre-Chorus] So I pushed from the dock Past the mud and reeds Past the voices on the bank Past the things I need [Chorus] Blue tin boat, take me out Blue tin boat, don’t turn around Let the hush of the water Pull my troubles down Blue tin boat, roll me slow Blue tin boat, don’t let go If I’m gonna leave this town Let it be now [Verse 2] Red bait box on the seat A cracked thermos lid Your old denim jacket Where you used to sit The sun caught the waves Like coins in a jar I kept your name in my mouth Like a lucky charm [Pre-Chorus] And the current took hold Like it knew my face Every mile from the shore Felt like a clean escape [Chorus] Blue tin boat, take me out Blue tin boat, don’t turn around Let the hush of the water Pull my troubles down Blue tin boat, roll me slow Blue tin boat, don’t let go If I’m gonna leave this town Let it be now [Bridge] If I find that bend Where the lilies grow I’ll lay my hands flat And I’ll let it all go No more hard goodbyes No more loaded звон? wait
