Lyrics:

Down in the boat
it was strange not to know
what to say
thought I would float
but the rain didn't come anyway.

The next time we meet here
you better bring matches
(a loss has occurred or may occur)
I'd rather it burn than collapses
(a loss has occurred or may occur)
I heard the question but I lost my line again
(a loss has occurred or may occur)
to memory daydreams and lapses
(a loss has occurred or may occur).

Down in the boat
it was strange not to know
what to say
thought we could float
but the rain didn't come anyway.

I wanted to speak to you over and over
but never could get me to call.
I wanted to talk to you over and over
but never could get me to call
and I hated your friends best of all.
