LIFE IN A PAPER BOAT (K Rusby PRS/ MCPS)

A boat made of paper it set sail with me,
And oh how I've grown weary,
That boat of shame it took me now I'm far from free,
And oh won't you stay near me.

Chorus
Hope it bloomed eternal there,
Upon the promised land,
Will it wither now,
Or will I feel my feet upon the sand?

This bundle that I carry is worth more to me than life,
And oh how I've grown weary
There's only me to hold her now that I'm no more a wife,
And oh won't you stay me.

Chorus

An ancient land I've left behind in ruins now lies she,
And oh how I've grown weary,
I must build a new land now with walls to keep her free,
And oh won't you stay near me.

Chorus

My heart is in my hand now we are on the open sea,
And oh how I've grown weary,
Thank God she won't remember this whatever it may be,
And oh won't you stay near me.

Chorus
The orange sun was burning,
On the boat where we all stand,
Hope it bloomed eternal there,
Upon the promised land,
Will it wither now,
Or will I feel my feet upon the sand?
