Standing on the edge of the quay
No lights flashing on the water for me
Fog in my mind darkens in my eyes
Silently streaming for a distant sound

Ripple river yellows
Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
Stillness overcome me in the night
Listen to the rising water moan

I′m waiting
Waiting for the night boat
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat

Shadows all through me
Shudder away
Echo me, echo me
Am I alone or is the river alive?

′Cause it echoes me, echoes me, echoes me
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat
I'm waiting

Waiting for the night boat
Waiting
Waiting for the night boat
I′m waiting

Waiting for the night boat
Waiting for the night boat (woo!)
As I′m waiting
Waiting for the night boat

I'm waiting for the night boat
