Lyrics
Paper cup of the boat Heaving chest of the sea Carry both of us Carry her, carry me From the place we were born To the land of the free Carry both of us Carry her, carry me The ocean That bears us from our home Could save us Or take us for its own The danger That life should lead us here My angel Could I have steered us clear? Gone, the light from her eyes With the lives that we made Just the two of us In the night on the waves Moving silent her lips By the moon's only light Sowing silver prayers In the blanket of night The ocean That bears us from our home Could save us Or take us for its own The danger That life should lead us here My angel Could I have steered us clear? Paper cup of the boat Heaving chest of the sea Carry both of us Or, swallow her, swallow me
