You Got Me on the Boat
Navigating Love's High Seas with Sarah Borges: You Got Me on the Boat
Lyrics
Worked my whole life on dry land
Expressing a lifetime of work on land.
It's a big country, and I've traveled it end to end
Highlighting extensive travel across the country.
Got a call from this fella in the city that I knew
Receiving a call from an acquaintance in the city.
He said there's a chance for a love that's true
Learning about a chance for genuine love.
He said there's something gonna happen that you wouldn't believe
Anticipating an extraordinary event.
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high seas
Discovering a kind of paradise on the high seas.
The rest of the world don't matter now
Declaring that everything else in the world is insignificant now.
I'll be listening to NRBQ when the sun goes down
Planning to enjoy music, specifically NRBQ, during sunset.
Radio station was playing my song
Feeling validated as a radio station plays the individual's song.
Made me feel like all my years of trying weren't wrong
Reflecting on past efforts and realizing they were not in vain.
And if I've learned anything in those years
Sharing a life lesson gained over the years.
It's when the music's playing it takes away life's hurts and fears
Believing that music has the power to alleviate life's pains and fears.
He said there's something gonna happen that you wouldn't believe
Reiterating the anticipation of an unbelievable event.
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high seas
Confirming the discovery of a heavenly experience at sea.
The rest of the world don't matter now
Emphasizing the newfound indifference to the rest of the world.
I'll be listening to the Yayhoos when the sun goes down
Expressing a preference for Yayhoos' music at sunset.
Now I'm here back again
Returning and acknowledging the support of friends.
I couldn't have done it without the help from you my friends
Attributing success to the assistance of friends.
My big red heart overflows
Describing an overwhelming feeling of love.
With a love from my head down to my toes
Experiencing love from head to toe.
He said there's something gonna happen that you wouldn't believe
Reaffirming the anticipation of an extraordinary event.
Some kind of heaven and I found it on the high seas
Reiterating the discovery of a heavenly experience at sea.
The rest of the world don't matter now
Maintaining the newfound indifference to the rest of the world.
I'll be listening to the Mavericks when the sun goes down
Choosing to listen to the Mavericks' music at sunset.
You got me on the boat and I ain't never going home
Expressing a commitment to staying on the boat indefinitely.
If there's better life then it ain't the one I know
Rejecting the idea of a better life elsewhere.
