I see a Boat.....

I see a boat on the river
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean
Where to, I can't say
Boat on the river
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean
Where to I can't say

I waited for him
Such a very long time
Don't know what for
'Cause I should have known
When he left on that boat
We'll meet no more

Boat on the river
You're bound for the sea
If you should find him
Please great him from me.

There were people who came
And said it's really a shame
Why did he take off
To follow just a dream
But I guess they were wrong
In life you're sailing along
And this thing don't turn out
As simple as they seem.

I see a boat on the river
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean
Where I can't say.
