"i'm a ship, i'm a ship, i'm a ship
out on the sea
none of my loves floating wild
come back to me
so i'll write you a letter, i'll write you a letter
with this here pen

don't make me wait, don't make me wait
'cuz i'm your friend

i'm in love with the garden
that is down the street
and the earth is a warm thing under my feet

oh long streams of light
lift me, from this dirty town
cuz i'm losing stain, soak me yeah with
rain
rain, rain, rain

i'm a ship, i'm a ship, i'm a ship
out on the sea
and all these clouds flying by so fast
well they confuse me
and the long leaves in the tall tress
pale in the sunshine
and i was twistin' and turnin'
in the cool sheets past bed time

plant me in the garden
don't you let me roam
cuz love is a feeling like a warm dark stone
