Bilingual
He sails a boat on a string
He's a boy by the bay
With a girl in his dreams
She watches patiently
She'll wait forever or a while
Climb any pedestal
Just to make him smile
But there is rain in every future
There is rain in every past
In silence a spark is waiting
Each life a forest aching for a match
He sails a boat on a string
He's a boy by the bay
With a toy and a dream
Of a love that lasts forever or a while
So many words
Just behind that smile
But there is rain in every future
There is rain in every past
In silence a spark is waiting
Each life a forest aching for a match
He sails a boat on a string
He's a boy by the bay
A boy with oh so many dreams
Watching patiently
He'll wait forever or a while
To sail his boat to some enchanted isle
But there is rain in every future
There is rain in every past
In silence a spark is waiting
Each life a forest aching for a match
Each life a forest aching for a match
Each life a forest aching for a match
