Hello old friend I see you've come back this way
Like a tide that laps at the sea shore, day after day
A Siren stole my heart, she sang it away on the breeze
I should have known from the start, but those Sirens they sing with ease
I gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man, all I did was wave
I gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man
Took words to open my mind, but I fell between the cracks
Chastised when I think of those times, but it's too late to turn back
Still drawn to that Siren call, on those lonely nights at sea
I thank rocks that left my skin torn, for the wisdom that I need
I gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man, all I did was wave
I gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man
Gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man, all I did was wave
I gave my love to the riverboat man, he sailed away
I gave my love to the riverboat man
