lyrics
Once I was the boat that you were sailing
You were just the captain of my time
Once I reached the window by climbing so high
I was at the bright, unspoiled beginning of my life
If I wasn’t certain of this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
Once I was the shadow of your pony
And I felt your arms around my neck
Then I dreamed of running ‘til we broke into the sky
You shouldn’t say it failed if you never even tried
If I wasn’t hoping for this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
Once I was the weather in your season
When you were always holding out for rain
I’ve been looking forward to the rising of the tide
When every boat is lifted and the sea is open wide
If I wasn’t waiting for this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
You were just the captain of my time
Once I reached the window by climbing so high
I was at the bright, unspoiled beginning of my life
If I wasn’t certain of this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
Once I was the shadow of your pony
And I felt your arms around my neck
Then I dreamed of running ‘til we broke into the sky
You shouldn’t say it failed if you never even tried
If I wasn’t hoping for this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
Once I was the weather in your season
When you were always holding out for rain
I’ve been looking forward to the rising of the tide
When every boat is lifted and the sea is open wide
If I wasn’t waiting for this one thing I would say goodbye, goodbye
