This Little Boat
Navigating Love's Odyssey: This Little Boat by Phil Madeira
Lyrics
So we built this boat
Initiation of the boat's creation
Such as it is
Acknowledgment of the boat's current state
We've been workin on it
Continuous effort put into building the boat
Day and night
Dedication of time and effort around the clock
Yes, it'll float
Assurance that the boat will be buoyant
Across the great abyss
Ability to traverse great challenges
Let's set a course under the
Choosing a direction under the celestial expanse
Starlit sky
Guided by the stars' illumination
It's as worthy of the sea
Equating the boat's worthiness to the recipient's worthiness of love
As you are worthy of the love
Comparing the recipient's worthiness to the guiding force of love
That lights our way
Love serving as a guiding light
And it'll carry you and me
Boat's capability to carry both individuals through challenges
Through whatever storm may come
Confidence in navigating any difficulties together
We'll find our way
Belief in finding the right path despite adversity
In this little boat of ours
Emphasis on the shared ownership of the boat
And we made a bed
Creation of a bed within the boat
Such as it is
Recognition of the simple nature of the bed
In the belly of this
Describing the boat's inner space
winsome dove
Metaphorical reference to a nurturing environment
A patchwork spread
Utilization of different materials to protect happiness
To shelter our bliss
Providing protection for joy and happiness
Let's drift together
Choosing to move forward together
On a wave of love
Progressing on the waves of affection
It's as worthy of the sea
Similar comparison between worthiness and love's guidance
As you are worthy of the love
Reiteration of worthiness and the power of love
That lights our way
Love serving as a guiding force
And it will carry you and me
Boat's capability to endure hardships together
Through whatever storm may come
Confidence in overcoming any challenges united
We'll find our way
Belief in navigating difficulties together
In this little boat of ours
Emphasis on joint ownership and partnership in the boat
And we spoke a dream
Sharing aspirations with each other
Into the wind
Expressing dreams together
Held each other as it
Being together and embracing aspirations
Filled our sails
Utilizing mutual support to move forward
