The Boat Dreams from the Hill

[Verse 1]
Boat on a hill, never going to sea
Anchored to a fixer upper's dream
This boat is beat, never gonna be a boat now
Thirsty, sees the sea from high on the ice plant

[Pre-Chorus]
He keeps patching it and painting
Thinking about his pension plan
But the boat is out to pasture
Seems it never had a chance

[Chorus]
I wanna be a boat
I wanna learn to swim
Then I'll learn to float
Then begin again

I wanna be a boat
I wanna learn to swim
Then I'll learn to float
Then begin again
Begin again

[Verse 2]
Boat remembers the carpenter's sure hand
Missing fishy flutter on its rudder
Sold at an auction, on a dolly ever since
Sometimes rainy days drop boyish wonder

[Pre-Chorus]
He keeps patching it and painting
Thinking about his pension plan
But the boat is out to pasture
Seems it never had a chance

[Chorus]
I wanna be a boat
I wanna learn to swim
Then I'll learn to float
Then begin again

I wanna be a boat
I wanna learn to swim
Then I'll learn to float
Then begin again
Begin again
