文本歌词

He left on a boat
Just to follow a dream
He had to find
You can't hold a man
When he follows a dream
That's on his mind
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
I waited for him
Such a very long time,
Don't know what for
'cause I should have known
When he left on the boat,
We meet no more
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
Boat on the river,
You're bound for the sea
If you should find him,
Please greet him from me
There were people
Who came and said
It's really a shame
Why did he take off to follow
Just a dream?
But I guess they were wrong,
In life you're sailing along
And things don't turn out
As simple as they seem
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say
I see a boat on the river,
You're bound for the sea
If you should find him,
Please greet him from me
Boat on the river
It's sailing away
