Lyrics

This Boat Needs an Anchor...by John Jump

This boat needs an anchor,
A harbor and a home.
It’s been too long alone against the tide.

This boat needs an anchor,
To hold me fast and true.
I’m just so tired of drifting every day.

Chorus:
Each bend on this river
Shows me something new.
But out here in the current
It all fades from view.

This boat needs an anchor.
Any port in a storm will do.
I want to feel hot sand beneath my cold wet feet.

I’m a drifitn’ out here on the stream,
I’ve seen it all float by.
But now I just wanna snuggle up to the scenery.

Each bend on this river
shows me something new.
But out here on this current
It all fades from view.

The things I’ve seen and the things I’ve done
Are weathered on my face.
My eyes reveal my many nights alone.

Each bend on this river
shows me something new.
But out here on this current
It all fades from view.

This boat needs an anchor,
A harbor and a home.
It’s been too long alone against the tide.
