Lyrics

It's time for a change I'm tired of that same old same The same old words, the same old lines The same old tricks and the same old rhymes Days, precious days Roll in and out like waves I got boards to bend, I got planks to nail I got charts to make, I got seas to sail I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan Let the chips fall where they will 'Cause I've got boats to build Sails are just like wings The wind can make them sing Songs of life, songs of hope Songs to keep your dreams afloat I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan Let the chips fall where they will 'Cause I've got boats to build Shores, distant shores There's where I'm headed for I got the stars to guide my way To sail into the light of day I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan Let the chips fall where they will 'Cause I'm gonna build me a boat with these two hands She'll be a fair curve from a noble plan Let the chips fall where they will 'Cause I've got boats to build, I've got boats to build I've got boats to build
