I See A Boat On The River - Boney M.

He left on a boat 
Just to follow a dream 
He had to find. 
You can´t hold a man 
When he follows a dream 
That´s on his mind. 

I see a boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
Boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 

I waited for him 
Such a very long time, 
Don´t know what for 
´cause I should have known 
When he left on the boat 
We´ll meet no more. 

I see a boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
Boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
Boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
Boat on the river. 
You´re bound for the sea, 
If you should find him 
Please greet him from me. 

There were people who came 
And said it´s really a shame, 
Why did he take off 
To follow just a dream. 
But I guess they were wrong, 
In life you´re sailing along 
And things don´t turn out 
As simple as they seem. 

Boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
I see a boat on the river, 
It´s sailing away 
Down to the ocean, 
Where to I can´t say. 
Boat on the river. 
You´re bound for the sea, 
If you should find him 
Please greet him from me.
