Lyrics When All Boats Rise - Little Feat

When All Boats Rise

Golden eagle disappears
In a blue hole in the clouds
Conversation falters
No one here speaks words out loud
Speaking for me
There’s no love in this crowd
Speaking for me
There’s no love in this crowd
Seismic shift and thinking
People stand there drinking, pacing the hall
Speaking for me, I can’t speak at all
Sunrise breaks and daylight counts the time
Seasons falling now, and tumble right
When all boats rise, we will find another pathway
When all boats rise, we will shine like stars above
When all boats rise, we can ride the silver skyway
There’ll be a better day, when all boats rise
Another tale goes left untold
Another song left unsung
Another line ladder to the stars
Put on every rock
Until the door waste your breath
Waiting for clear skies
Speaking for me
I’m ready for the day when all boats rise
I’ve written letters to friends I’ll never see
Your face is shaded by the way things used to be
Freedom strolled on sand, rushed by the sea
Somewhere, someone stands there, slow pacing
Down here we’re all pans with glasses raised
When all boats rise, we will find another pathway
When all boats rise, we will shine like stars above
When all boats rise, we can ride the silver skyway
There’ll be a better day, when all boats rise
Another sign on the heaven’s back, hope is not lost
Another whisper or prayer, says the river must be crossed
No more wasting your time, lift your arm to the skies
Never have to die a thousand deaths
Waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting) waiting (waiting)
Yeah, waiting for the boats to rise
When all boats rise, we will find another pathway
When all boats rise, we will shine like stars above
When all boats rise, we can ride the silver skyway
That day is coming soon, when all boats rise
That day is coming soon, when all boats rise
When all boats rise
