I went to bed last night
I met a girl and she cried
Her name Selene, her face serene, I saw her in a dream
Or did I find her in your memory
Should I turn and turn as you play the guitar
Turn and turn and turn, loving you from afar
Thinking I could die
Will I find out why
So I'll get in a boat, row through time, Lavender and Rum in my mind
I'll get in a boat, row through time, call me Rhiannon, and away I'll fly
And when the hunger sets in
I can feel again
When it's all so cold maybe I won't feel alone
But I'm still on my own
Should I turn and turn as we talk about art
Turn and turn, finding out who we are
Why don't I just die
Will I find out why
So I'll get in a boat, row through time, Lavender and Rum in my mind
I'll get in a boat, row through time, call me Rhiannon, and away I'll fly
But what would you say, in the light of day
If the weather was wrong and the words to a song came before you were gone
And my sister's in love, and not one of us
Mr. Stevens was right it's the 4th of July and we're all gonna die
So I'll get in a boat, row through time, Lavender and Rum in my mind
I'll get in a boat, row through time, call me Rhiannon, and away I'll fly
If you get in a boat, row through time, come again to me when I'm still a child
