J Mascis - A Boat on the Sea lyrics

There's a lamp that won't light In my poetry room And children out playing And a big full moon My man's barricaded there in his womb He'll be coming out soon I remember when I met him He blew in like the wind No one was more beautiful Or dangerous than him He blew through my soul Like a tangerine wind He'll be coming out soon I never knew I Was built so strong My heart My heart is a boat on the sea I never thought I Was built for hurricanes My heart My heart is a boat on the sea Luxury looms on a fog bound day I'm not alone now and I'm not afraid I'm clean and I'm free. It's all stripped away My debts are paid I wonder if he ever looks down on the sea And thinks about the time He spent with me I know everything's exactly how it has to be All's right with this world I never knew I Was built so strong My heart My heart is a boat on the sea I never thought I Was built for hurricanes My heart My heart is a boat on the sea In the cold and the dark You're the grace of my heart In the cold and the dark You're the grace of my heart In the cold and the dark You're the grace of my heart
