He took his boat to the shore said what he wanted was more, to feel the sun on his skin, to feel something
Was it a woman's love with a heart so pure it fills you up
with all the good things a man's heart needs
a full stomach an empty plate
He took his boat to the shore though he hadn't sailed before
he raised those sails to the wind let em take him
Was it a dream you had your heart set on with so much passion it can't fizzle out
Set out knowing it was yours for the taking with chalky hands and a clean slate
He took his boat to the shore
That was the last we saw of him
He had a woman on his heart, or a dream on his mind
or something he couldn't see yet
