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

Oh, Lara
Oh, Lara

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

Oh, Lara
Oh, Lara

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

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