[Verse 1]
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

[Refrain]
Oh, Lara
Oh, Lara

[Verse 2]
I'll be a tree
Far away from the sea
With roots so wild and deep
Far away from the sea

[Refrain]
Oh, Lara
Oh, Lara

[Bridge]
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
[Outro]
I took a boat
In my mothers arms, in my mothers arms
Mother could float
But I washed away, I washed away
