Someday I'll take you on a boat away to peace
We will sit and dine there in peace
But tell me when will you take my hand and say
'I can row for two'?
Sometimes I need to sit and breathe and find some peace
Rarely do I understand what it is I seek
And I tongue my cheeks and clench my teeth
And I can't row for two
For there's three snakes in the pond lying alone
Breathless and yawning I just run on home
And I tongue my cheeks and clench my teeth
Waiting for my peace
For if I am to lie at night
Throw sunlight out my head
And if we are to dine tonight
I hope we can breathe free
Someday I'll take you on a boat away to peace
We will sit and dine there in peace
But tell me when will you take my hand and say
'I can row for two'?
