Thinking bout' the water for a sign,
waiting for the moment to arise
I now that no man could ever fly,
just lay me on the water

colors paint great pictures in my dreams,
shinning of the rust that I have seen
but I dont need to show them to the world,
just lay me on the water

And the water has come,
I'll just float
and if its rough, and high,
I'll pretend that im a boat
lay me on the water

oh candy seems to roll off of my tounge,
I view all good citizens as one
but I don't feel like leading some campaign,
just lay me on the water

And the water has come,
I'll just float
and if its rough, and high,
I'll pretend that im a boat
lay me on the water

A gentle on the wing where I want to be
listen to the breeze flow
lay me on the water

And the water has come,
I'll just float
and if its rough, and high,
I'll pretend that im a boat
lay me on the water

Lay me on the water,
lay me on the water,
lay me on the water,
lay me on the water
