Arno Carstens - Wake up Lyrics

You boarded a boat, to the other side
Without saying goodbye, without a reason to try
And if I follow you home, I will never know
Until it’s too late

I close my eyes and hope she’ll wake up
I close my eyes and hope she’ll stay another day
Have mercy on my soul when I wake up to
To the sound of a heart that doesn’t ache

So I boarded a boat, to the other side
Without saying goodbye, without a reason why
And if there’s trouble ahead, you will never know
Until it’s too late

And the wheels are falling freely
And we rowed the boat until the sails are set
And the rockets roar, there’s no healing
It’s on the journey to the end
And I’ve come to find a friend

I close my eyes and hope she’ll be there
A giant rolling thunder beaming out of control
And when the wonder leaves us breathless
From hell to hallelujah you get me out of this hole

So I boarded a boat, to the other side
Without saying goodbye, without a reason why
And if there’s trouble ahead, you will never know
Until it’s too late

When things go belly up
Walk on the water, spare no quarter
When things go belly up
Shake off the shackles, rattle the rattles

When things go belly up
When tears are falling, get up and going
When things go belly up
Walk on the water, walk on, walk on

When things go belly up
When things go belly up
When things go belly up
When things go belly up

I close my eyes and hope she’ll wake up
I close my eyes and hope she’ll stay another day
Oh mercy, mercy, my soul wake up
To the sound that will carry me far away
Yeah
