woke up at eightstarted a fire
had a few drinkswe all felt inspired
jumped in the streamour shoes and canteens
the water is bitter cold
laid in the raft till it started moving
the current just sangthe song was so soothing
we stopped along the way
on a beach in the sun on a beautiful day
our boats collidewe feel the breeze
we stay afloat and make the most of everything
by noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
missed all dangerssnakes and the floods
burned by the rays and next to our legsthe water so bitter cold
lunch had been saved along with the lighters
wet cigarettes serve us as reminders
never trust a man with foodchange of clothesand a drink in his hand
our boats collidewe feel the breeze
we stay afloat and make the most of everything
the sun will setthe stars would shine
the trees would shakewe d all feel fine
let s take the moon and make it shine for everyone
we d laugh away the sunburn
as we laughed away his day
what we lost means nothing
for the memories will stay
caught the last buswith no time to linger
driver seemed to be missing a finger
i turned and looked away to the busgravel road and a beautiful day
our boats collidewe feel the breeze
we stay afloat and make the most of everything
the sun will setthe stars would shine
the trees would shakewe d all feel fine
let s take the moon and make it shine for everyone
let s take the moon and make it shine for everyone
