Boney M. - I See a Boat (On the River) lyrics

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'll 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 down to
