One Little Boat

Just a simple image of summer days. An innocent timeless moment at the shore caught in my mind.

One Little Boat

One little boat in the ocean afloat Two little boys on the shore Sand in a pail and a paper bag sail Isn’t it grand to have wind in your hair

Just you and I counting shapes in the sky Clouds never made up their minds Off to the races, excitement on faces With schooners and clippers and big bearded skippers

Chorus: Wasn’t that you, wasn’t that me? Where the years go it’s a crime Hard to recall us being so small When we had nothing but time

Seeing the world with sleep in our eyes We never counted the days Why would you walk, when you could run Why would you worry when your having fun

Blue bathing suits and old rubber boots We never knew what was in style Just me and you and all we could do To keep our feet dry getting chased by the waves

Chorus:
