Rocking Chair

from I Knew A Girl Once by Ray Zimmerman

/

lyrics

This rocking chair's gonna be a boat
And I will take you with me
Anywhere I float

And when the tide
Is too high
We'll just flap our arms
And we will touch the sky
And we'll fly up fast but we'll come down slow

This little table's gonna be a cave
And we'll make great lists of the hieroglyphs
Inside the walls that we have made

From old sheets
That we will take
We will fall asleep
And then we'll wake
And then we'll think of somewhere else to go

Cos these days won't stay forever we best make them last
Time is given slow, but baby it's taken fast so for tonight
Just dream of all the stories we will write
And we'll be alright

This little patch of grass is gonna be a forest
And we'll never admit it but we're scared if we're honest

Of the big old tiger we imagined
Or the giant and the yeti and the fire breathing dragon
But we got sticks so we got swords
We'll be soldiers in the war
Where victory will be followed close by peacetime

This little box is gonna ba a plane
And i'll be your co-pilot
Anywhere you aim

And when there's storms
I'll hold your hand
Then I will help you to land
And there'll be rainbows and the sun will shine

Cos these days won't stay forever we best make them last
Time is given slow, but baby it's taken fast so for tonight
Just dream of all the stories we will write
And we'll be alright

A million years would be too few
So i'll spend every day I can
In this rocking chair with you

Cos these days won't stay forever we best make them last
Time is given slow, but baby it's taken fast so for tonight
Just dream of all the stories we will write
And we'll be alright
