I took a boat, I took a boat, I took a boat I didn't know, I didn't know, I didn't know The waves were coming there was nowhere else to go I was so cold, I was so cold, I was so cold Oh, Lara Oh, Lara I'll be a tree Far away from the sea With roots so wild and deep Far away from the sea Oh, Lara Oh, Lara It's always gonna be Forever changing sea And every grain of sand used to be a mountain I won't forget I won't forget I took a boat In my mothers arms, in my mothers arms Mother could float But I washed away, I washed away
