Lyrics:
a place that I can
I'm waiting for the silent boatman
To ferry me across the unknown waters
In this life, though I've tried
Many things couldn't be
Closed
The boatman rose to the sound of his heartbeat
Loud in the silent approach of the dawn
He glanced through the window at mist on the lake
Which
Strawbs - The Vision Of The Lady Of The Lake
The boatman rose to the sound of his heartbeat
Loud in the silent approach of the dawn
He glanced
drifted along in silence
Till the tickle of life trickled in.
And the rhythm began in the hiss of the sand,
We were catching fire again.
Oh boatman
Boatman, Boatman, take me across the water
Boatman, Boatman, across the sea of tears
If your tears won't flow there'll be no water for me
If your
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
Slave is the body
Master is the soul
Resurrect the dead
Pay the boatman's toll
Grave is the seeker
A sedentary hole
and sickly my true love to see
Oh, where is the boatman, oh, my bonny hinny?
Oh, where is the boatman? Bring him to me
To ferry me over the Tyne to my
play my song
To carry me along
Like I said you know I'm almost dead
You know I'm almost gone
And when the boatman comes
To ferry me away
in my 'ee,
Both sighing and sickly, my sweetheart to see.
Oh, where is the boatman, my bonny hinney?
Oh, where is the boatman? Bring him to me
drifted along in the silence
'Til the tickle of life trickled in
And the rhythm began in the hiss of the sand
We were catching fire again.
Boatman, I
The boatman's toll is due
From earth into the afterlife
Ferryboat by lantern light
Poling boat bone collector
Anthropomorphic specter
Spectral shifts
The boatman's toll is due
From earth into the afterlife
Ferryboat by lantern light
Poling boat bone collector
Anthropomorphic specter
Spectral shifts
So close to heaven
Where the Angels Fly
Hey Mr. Boatman
Do you have the time?
I think I'm running Late
And I don't know why
I'd rather take
to realize
I might have no fun but I’ll try again
It’s like a boatman that tried his best
I had no fun
Doing shit with no life
I had a long time
to get it out
sail to another island
But you know that im the only boatman
My name is Bohan
What you know man
My weed control, I dont keep it on the low man
I can set
BOATMAN
My father he did say to me ‘don’t ever be a boatman’
A mistress so cruel is the sea she’ll take you for her own
Many a woman’s tears have
unforgiving
cs day turned to night
It weathered this man
I'm out here doing just the best I can
We all must pay the boatman
We all must pay the boatman
We all
and there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting and he's leaving here with you
And you can't take it with you
No matter what you do
No
know you have good reasons and there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting and he's leaving here with you
And you can't take it
The Boatman
If I could choose the life I pleased
Then I would be a boatman
Along the canals and the rivers free
No hasty words are spoken
My only
scream as I fall.
Can you hear me? Our shadows left us all.
Can you hear me? This is the Boatman's call!
What am I to you now?
Can you share your love
cross a river
There's a boatman who has lived since time immemorial
A man who knows the way to the other side of this river
And I promise you our lives
the Master of Sensibility
Ahhhh....
There are so many paths, search for the boatman and follow him
The Rabbit in the top hat - he knows the depth of all
'ee,
Both sighing and sickly, my sweetheart to see.
Oh, where is the boatman, my bonny hinney?
Oh, where is the boatman? Bring him to me
To ferry me over
