[Verse 1]
The tide is high
My heart needs to let go
I’ll drop it in the depths
Now it’s anchored far below
Now I’m free
Free of your hold on me
But I feel like a fool
A shipwreck on a barstool
[Chorus]
Singing I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Oh, I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
[Verse 2]
And after the storm
When the world is quiet
Will I embrace the peace
Or start a riot?
Will I be with my heart once more
When it’s no longer yours?
Will I still be a fool
A shipwreck on a barstool?
[Chorus]
Singing I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
[Bridge]
Oh I’m free
Free of your hold on me
Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi
Oh I’m free
Free of your hold on me
Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi
[Chorus]
I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Oh, I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Out on the sea
The tide is high
My heart needs to let go
I’ll drop it in the depths
Now it’s anchored far below
Now I’m free
Free of your hold on me
But I feel like a fool
A shipwreck on a barstool
[Chorus]
Singing I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Oh, I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
[Verse 2]
And after the storm
When the world is quiet
Will I embrace the peace
Or start a riot?
Will I be with my heart once more
When it’s no longer yours?
Will I still be a fool
A shipwreck on a barstool?
[Chorus]
Singing I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
[Bridge]
Oh I’m free
Free of your hold on me
Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi
Oh I’m free
Free of your hold on me
Because this heart of mine beats at the bottom of the Mississippi
[Chorus]
I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Oh, I want to be
That lonely boat out on the sea
Out on the sea
