lyrics

Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere

After all my hope is gone, I’m a client of this old man
But I’ll fight to the end of my days,
and when I go I’ll never be far from home ‘cause

Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere
I lost the keys of my hell and you found them back again
Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere

I lost my faith on angels and prayers
I’ve never seen the light and I’ve never been sure
That he’s waiting by the river – waiting for me
Oh babe, I’ll be dancing when he calls for me ‘cause

Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere

Lost it all on the roads that I crossed
with the angels that are walking around the room
with my eyes gazed on the stairs
-my lies are the best you’ll hear tonight ‘cause

Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere
I lost the keys of my hell and you found them back again
Life’s like a riverboat sailing out to nowhere

With my Voice
Lord, don’t you beg, I’m on fire
Lord, there’s a wind that just won’t break, by my side
Lord, I’ve been mending all your clouds,
I’m your storm tonight

Lord, don’t you beg, I’m on fire
Lord, there’s a stranger in my bed with my voice
Lord, I’ve been following your steps
with eyes closed and sore
