Make me a boat
And set me afloat
And carry me home

Find me a wave
That's soft and safe
And made for me

Find me a wave
That is slow and amazing
To care for my heart

Find me a wave
That's harsh and ungraceful
To tear me apart

Find my own maker
Carry me home
The lights are unchanging here

Lead me away to the city today
The shaking of all my fears
Cast away

Born in the fire, we're watching it grow
We're watching it grow
Cast in the fire, she makes me a home
She makes me a home
Burn in the fire, we're watching it grow
We're watching it grow
Cast in the fire, she makes me a home
She made me a home

And she made me a home
Oh, she made me a home
And we moved soft and slow

So please marry me love
Oh, please marry me love

Make me a boat
And set me afloat
And carry me home
