The Night Boat

on the edge of the quay no lights flashing on the water for me fog in my mind darkens in my eyes silently screaming for a distant sound ripple river yellow-- rising for a breath of breeding and drowns stillness overcome me in the night listen... to the rising water moan I'm waiting waiting, for the nightboat I'm waiting waiting, for the nightboat Shadows all through me shudder away echo me, echo me... am I alone, or is the river alive? cuz it echoes me, echoes me-- echoes me... I'm waiting waiting, for the nightboat I'm waiting waiting, for the nightboat I'm waiting... waiting for the nightboat.. I'm waiting... waiting for the nightboat.... I'm waiting for the nightboat...
