A Little Boat

Little boat in a little bottle
Wants to sail around the world
All the big boats they laughed and moaned
A ship in a bottle cannot float

So I'm told the little boat
Was sad and crying all alone
Looking out into the world
The world outside its bottle home

I hope you go, not afraid to find your own
Find your own way to stay afloat
I hope you know, you always have a place to go
Always a way to sail around the world

Then one day the storm rolled in
The wind and rain and so it goes
All the big boats they ran far away
Everyone left as the water rose

Little boat heard the voices
A ship in a bottle cannot float
But you know the little boat,
It decided to give it a go

I hope you go, not afraid to find your own
Find your own way to stay afloat
I hope you know, you always have a place to go
Always a way to sail around the world

So the storm it ended so
And everyone came back to the port
But the little boat where did it go
No one really knows for sure

I hope you go, not afraid to find your own
Find your own way to stay afloat
I hope you know, you always have a place to go
Always a way to sail around the world

I hope you go, not afraid to find your own
Find your own way to stay afloat
I hope you know, you always have a place to go
Always a way to sail around the world

To this day, if you look hard
Some distance off the nearest shore
There it is, the little boat
Sailing and smiling around the world
Sailing and smiling around the world
