lyrics

There's Always A Boat Going Nowhere
You, you turn around
And I can see somebody new
You, you are my friend
So I’ll hear again
What you get up to
From a string of heartbreaks
Will you ever learn
How to find a true love
Whose heart is all your own

Cos you’re always on boats going nowhere
Why do you always ignore
That you always set sail with a captain
Who doesn’t know starboard from port
There’s always a boat going nowhere
It’s better to wait for the tide
And be sure that you know where the boat’s going to go
Before you start accepting a ride

You, you say she’s the one
You’ve found the sun
Something’s begun
How, how can you be sure
When all times before
Something went wrong
You say to me that you can see the sun shine in her eyes
But if seeing is believing then it’s all a pack of lies

Cos you get on a boat going nowhere
Cos you never wait to be sure
And you don’t want to know how many times
They have been shipwrecked before
There’s always a boat going nowhere
It’s better to wait for the tide
And be sure that you know where the boat’s going to go
Before you start accepting a ride
