On a Small Boat
On small, little boat
Some water leaking inside
The pond free of mist
I wait for just her to come
With her joyful tenderness
I watch with both eyes
Looking near edge of the pond
She appears smiling
Dressed in some old ragged clothes
But beautiful in my eyes
I reach shallow shore
Help her in the tiny boat
Off we go forward
To leave the life we once knew
Behind us, to live ahead
For all of our lives
We finally go onward
Our boat moves on down
Peaceful life to live beyond
Two hearts in love, unison
