Here comes the yellow boat on a river
She is sleeping and I will leave her
Look at the yellow boat on the river
She is swimming and I will give her
(Give her)
Water to drink, candles to light
I am walking home tonight
In the wind on the right corner
Flies

Look at the yellow boat on a river
She is swimming and I will leave her
Here comes the yellow boat on a river
She is diving and I will give her
(Give her)
Apples to eat and wood to burn
Then she tells me when I turn
She will turn to stone and fall asleep
I will be a memory

Here comes the yellow boat in the night
She is turning off the light
Look at the river
Look at the moon
Sailing home on a windy night
Soon
