Boats To Build Lyrics


It's time for a change
I'm tired of that same ol' same
The same ol' words the same ol' lines
The same ol' tricks and the same ol' rhymesDays precious days
Roll in and out like waves
I got boards to bend I got planks to nail
I got charts to make I got seas to sailI'm gonna build me a boat
With these two hands
Itll be a fair curve
From a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I've got boats to buildSails are just like wings
The wind can make 'em sing
Songs of life songs of hope
Songs to keep your dreams afloatI'm gonna build me a boat
With these two hands
Itll be a fair curve
From a noble plan

Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I've got boats to buildShores distant shores
Theres where I'm headed for
Got the stars to guide my way
Sail into the light of dayI'm gonna build me a boat
With these two hands
Itll be a fair curve
From a noble plan
Let the chips fall where they will
'Cause I've got boats to build

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
