Daylight Dreaming...
I stand here on a shore with everyone I know
everybody is happy as they board their ships
I look around and wave to each one as they go
but I am not going on any of these trips
everyone has a place to go and a purpose here
somewhere to end and somewhere to begin
sometimes I close my eyes hoping to disappear
but I open them and wonder "when will my boat come in?"
