Jawbreaker Boat Dreams From The Hill Lyrics

Boat Dreams From The Hill Lyrics

Boat on a hill, never going to sea.
Anchored to a fixer upper's
dream.
This boat is beat, never going to be a boat now.
Thirsty, sees the
sea from high on ice plant.

He keeps patching it and
painting.
Thinking about his pension plan.
But the boat is out to
pasture.
Seems it never had a chance.

I wanna be a boat. I wanna
learn to swim
Then I'll learn to float. Then begin again.

Boat
remembers the carpenter's sure hand.
Missing fishy flutter on it's
rudder.
Sold at an auction, on a dolly ever since.
Sometimes rainy days
bring boyish wonder.
