Slow Boat, Soft Light, Nowhere to Be

by Rue Calloway-Voss

“A slow boat, soft light, and nowhere to be. It's the B-side because it's the one I play when I'm alone.”

Lyrics

The boat is slow, the water's wide
I stand outside with you
The wind is soft, the sky is grey
There is nothing we must do

A seagull follows by the rail
The engine hums along
I lean on you, you lean on me
We are not in a hurry

Slow boat, slow boat
Nowhere to be
Slow boat, slow boat
Just you and me
The water goes by
We go along
Slow boat, slow boat
Singing a quiet song

The far shore comes up small and clear
A little line of light
I hold your hand, we watch it grow
And everything is right

Slow boat, slow boat
Nowhere to be
Slow boat, slow boat
Just you and me
The water goes by
We go along
Slow boat, slow boat
Singing a quiet song

Hush, hush
Let it be
Hush, hush
Just you and me

Slow boat, slow boat
Nowhere to be
Slow boat, slow boat
Just you and me
The water goes by
We go along
Slow boat, slow boat
Singing a quiet song

Slow boat
Nowhere to be
