The Boat

We went to live on a boat
I've got books and all our clothes
Cause we were bored with everything was being done
So determined to succeed
Cause everything we believed was put on hold for far too many years
We said goodbye to the coast
(Maybe we'll see you again)
Convinced of what we needed most
(I guarantee we'll still be friends)
But then he dropped when people saw what they had done
All the things we said would be
All the people we would meet had turned around and made the long way home
And who invited the violent one?
It's you who divided everyone
We cast our clothes and selves aside
Cause we got nothing left to hide
And there was nothing more that we could ever say
But it made sense to us right then
Got funny looks from uptight friends for what we've done
We cast our clothes and selves aside
Cause we got nothing left to hide
And there was nothing more that we could ever say
But it made sense to us right then
Got funny looks from uptight friends for what we've done
But I keep waiting
To be proved wrong
Like they knew all along
They may shame me and you
For the things we didn't do
While the good ones say "move on"
