I'm waiting for a boat to help me out of here - mm
Waiting for a boat to help me out
The boat that reached my shore was a toyboat - mm
Waiting for a boat to help me out
I'm dreaming of a lake I've never seen before - mm
I'm dreaming of a lake I've never seen
The lake I've seen last was a picture lake - mm
Dreaming of a lake I've never seen
You who are
You who are
Help me out, help me out, help me out of here
I'm thinking of a castle on a top a hill - mm
Thinking of a castle on a top a hill
The castle I've been to was full of flies - mm
